I have recently purchased 4 fossilized tree side tables (Which I learned later are for indoor use only) I would like to use as seats around a fire pit. What should I do to prepare them for outdoor use?

well i have the day off so i might as well throw another one at you all. I found this next to the largest petrified tree stump I have ever seen. It came from the north fork of the Shoshone river about seven miles from Yellowstone Park. I haven't seen anything quite like it. I think it looks like a sprout of some kind. Has anyone any seen something like this?

Help identifying a carboniferous fossil found at a quarry, please.
JavierMS posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi everyone. I recently visited a quarry at the north of Spain (more specifically a geographical area called "El Bierzo", famous for its fossils from the carboniferous era) and I found this one, which looks like tree bark with some particular marks. I have found several well preserved fossils at the same quarry but I will upload the pictures later. I have been looking for information about this one in particular but I haven't found out what type of tree it is, has anybody seen this before? Thank you very much!

Hi, Dactylioceras I have had a while after prepping it, it is pyrite so was a bit stubborn, pretty big Dac though, the monkey puzzle stump is a recent find and is laced with jet, makes a nice stand for the Ammonite or whatever I decide to put on next, wanted to share, thanks, Alan.

I went Grizzly Bear hunting the other day with my jackknife. I dont use guns. Hiked up to 27,000 feet to find the biggest 1600 lbs bears and ran into this very rare but edilble tree. I didnt come home with a grizzl bear but I did come home with this small chunck of tasty tree. Took some time to cut off a nice piece with my jack knife. The thing is, there are some very poisoness tree grubs in this chunk. Im talking super duper deadly!!! but also, once they come out from the tree bark they die and then the become edible!! Yum,,, yum,,,. No one knows about this but a very few locals. Well,, and me. Gunna be a good tasty Christmas for sure! Ha!! Gunna go real good with our roasted porcupine! Life is good. RB

I took my 5 year old son out today for our first time fossil hunting. We went to Warden point in Kent and had a good time despite the rain and wind! Amongst various bits of fossilised wood we picked this up. It's possibly another piece of wood but I'd appreciate and identification. Thanks. Great forum! Here's another angle And one more

Might be a case of pareidolia but these oddly shaped rocks resemble something... First to me looks like tree bark. (is it real?) Second i have no idea what it looks like (most likely just a weird way the rock broke) [Found in Kanawha County WV, Dunkard Group]

Kathleen B. Pigg of the University of Arizona notes that this "stem subsurface pattern that is sometimes called 'rabbit tracks'. The double track you see is probably a result of a pair of air channels that accompany the leaf trace through the cortex. The vertical ribs are produced by an increase of bark through secondary tissue production." The pair of sepicemns in the first image are the positive and negative impressions of the same piece. The second image is a detail from the same specimen.
