looking for some flatwork - turning tree cookies into functional pieces

I’ve got a number of cookies that I would love to have made into something useful. My preference would be a nice natural looking table, but am open to other ideas as well. The silver maple was taken down October 4th, so it still quite wet. Sizes are approximately 22” in diameter, and 3” thick. Pictures are attached.
