    Anything Rod can do...

    I can at least attempt

    ***note I have left dust on the bottom so you you can tell my shop from Rod's.

    thanks for the plans Rod, it was fun to build

    That is beautiful...do you just stand there and look at it, amazed that you made it? It looks manufactured--very, very professional, if that's the right word.

    Inspirational--that someone else could have Kirby-esque results.

    I bet it results in a fresh set of requests to Rod...

        Hey! Way to go

        Having e-mailed 72 copies of the PDF, I wondered if anyone would actually use them. Well done - your's is much better finished than mine.

              Morning Hoakie..

              Nice.... functional and versatile design by Rod and well done construction and finish by you.....

              Caution.... I wouldn't let those pics get to far out of a tight circle. If those Chinese "boys" see em, they'll be mass producing them for $12.95 under the banner of affordable dining table that can be towed behind your camper or mobile "ping-pong" table. ha.. ha...

              Seriously.. nice work using a nice design........

              Regards...

                    But the shopnotes version didn't repel sawdust like yours

                      On the contrary - Rod's shop furniture actually absorbs sawdust.

                        That explains how he gets all of that MDF...

                          Thanks to all for the nice comments. The piece is far from perfect and required some "creative enhancements" (i.e. fixing measure once cut twice errors) to get it to come together properly. I learned a lot and it should serve my needs for a good long while.

                            That a really nice job. I also have the plans but keep vacillating between building according to the plans or building something based on the plans or building something else.

                            For the record, I'm just like Rod when it comes to sawdust, cleaning up as I go along.

                              No way you made that. You must have had Rod ship you one.
