The grindstone is pegged through the hole to the wood base, to keep it from moving.

We're busy harvesting Cinderella Pumpkins, broom corn, Indian corn, gourds and squash for our Fall Country Junk Sale, but found time to make this table, out of a huge old 28" grindstone and some 2x4 scraps.

Pattern or design used: My own design
