Colors are nice. We have what’s called Cull lumber at my HD and it’s 70% off. Did you joint the edges of of the wood for the top?
I hope the edges of the angle at the top of the table aren’t too sharp. You can also add a bottom shelf.
I hope those legs don’t start walking away at your work.
Thanks. I've seen the cull lumber and it's usually more crooked than wet spaghetti. They bundle it up and make you buy the bundle, I think. Still, maybe I'll keep an eye out and see if there's anything useful.
I didn't have a jointer at the time, so I used my table saw with a long fence extension. I glued all the pieces together, then used a planer sled on my planer to get one face on the the laminated assembly straight/flat, then flipped it over to palne it to thickness. It worked fairly well.
The edges are crisp, but not sharp. A bottom shelf will likely be added to version 2! :)
I hope no one steals them as well, but I think i'd try to be flattered that they thought the table was cool enough to take. I had some more of this material, but I stupidly gave it away as part of a blast cabinet. It's not easy to find.
