| Registered User Forum Fanatic  |  Thanks all for the help In order to place the cottage it was necessary to take down a big beautiful red pine which was cut to ten foot lengths and delivered to a local ma and pa sawmill. Being a relative rookie at this, I would like to thank all the folks who guided me through to the finished project, this is one great forum. Jer.

| Registered User Forum Fanatic | Well, you may recall the conversation we had regarding the Kreg pockethole system, imho, this is a must have tool in any shop. That's the way this entire table was joined with the exception of the table top, I used a double row of biscuits there. Had a problem with the top warping in one corner ( your solution solved this ), damn, come to think of it, you had a lot to do with this project, might as well put your name on it too. I used a product called Old Masters acrylic polyurethane with a synthetic brush after researching which finish could best take the abuse a dining table can expect ( including boogers ) hehe. As for the drill press vacuum plate, I'm still using the prototype as per your instructions because I've had no reason to change it, what it doesn't pick up immediately, a quick swipe with my hand and it's gone.

| Registered User Forum King  | That's a beautiful table Jer. It's always a shame to take down a big tree, but you sure put it to good use.

| Registered User Forum Fanatic | Thanks much for the kind words fellas, next up is going through whats left of that big old tree and hopefully, matching coffee table and end tables. Chairs are a little out of my loop for now so I picked up some unfinished chairs at a local retailer that will be finished in a forest green. Cheers.
