Table of DOOM

a gallery created by eccles

Back in November 2006, an off the cuff comment about needing a bigger outdoor table from one of my parents made me think "I can build one" for Christmas. This turned out to be almost biting off more than I could chew.

In late April 2007, I finally delivered it to them. Its not perfect, but it will standup and hold salad. Its about 1.9m * 1.25m and just shy of 1m tall.

Here then, is the saaaaga.

There's no final photos of it finished and with legs, because when I delivered it, on Saturday, it was pouring rain and I didn't think to grab the camera. Suffice to say that Liz and me were on the back porch, slowly getting wetter and wetter, attaching each of the four legs with four long screws as my parents' dog insisted we play with her. I might get some photos later.

If you start with the first image and navigate through that way, you can watch the unfolding drama! Gasp!
