For the Neanderthals out there.
Someone sent me this video of a guy making a nice dining room table for
his wife. I thought those that liked using hand tools, I call you neanderthals of course, would enjoy all the hard work. Myself, I'm into power, gas/electric, the more the better. I respect hard work though, so enjoy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psgK...are_video_user -- Jack Add Life to your Days not Days to your Life. http://jbstein.com |

If he'd used Sketchup he wouldn't have had to do that much dry fitting. ;-) Look on his wife's face? Priceless. |

Still there, still working perfectly, still a ton heavy! |

I showed it to my wife and she loved it, though it's not her style. it is a nice table but too heavy Dining room tables *are* heavy. It's not accidental. will be hard to move to vacuum and since they look like a traditional couple she probably plays the housewife role and vacuums You're not going to just shove ours into the corner to vacuum under it, either. That's just not rational. a better design would have been to create the top in 4 pieces connected with a simple mechanism underneath like a cam style connector or the like something that can be done with one hand Oh, good grief! you neanderthals of course, would enjoy all the hard work.

Your criticism of Chris' work, and with respect to his wife, is totally unfounded and rude. Chris stated, clearly, what the plan was, which in part, BTW, was to USE NO METAL FASTENERS!!! You not only do not pay attention, you're an idiot. Sonny |

Regardless of the original goal, and the fact that he is an idiot, most wives or significant others would be thrilled at the amount of effort that went into that project. He could just have easily ****ed his time away watching sports, drinking beer, fishing, goofing of with his buddies, etc. Since he obviously doensn't know what it takes to build a project of that nature, it leads me to believe that he might think the video was in real time. Then, in his world, no big deal. Robert |
