got myself some free wood !! so here is the start of my table !!

after finishing i felt quite pleased untill i noticed the sky. seems the weather was against me so i had to move fast :P

got the table inside and decided to line it with some waterproofing . realised the better half would be home soon and decided to finish up water proofing tomorrow.

just need to place my order for lamp and other bits then im well set for little one

sorry for the photo quality . like many others i simply used my phone

looking good!! where's the free wood from!! I had to go to b and q and have a huge thick sheet of MDF cut down to size...

Rory & Gem · 05-03-2009, 01:33 PM

its from where i work

!

they stock cardboard they run thru a machine to make shipping boxes. this cardboard comes delivered with 4ft by 3ft MDF/Laminate top boards to prevent damage in transit.

also comes in handy for tort tables so it seems

You could set up a tort table business

Big profits if materials are free
