Pie Crust Table #1: Starting with the top.

Wow … that’s some beautiful lumber. Very thoughtful tip on the material utilization.

-- keeping myself entertained

Good use of material Gary I look forward to more on your Pie crust. I’ve started my first pie crust also I thought I would give it a go in poplar first then fallow up with a more suitable figured wood on my second one.

A very logical way to approach the problem of getting the Mostest out of what you have…

Very good!

How are you going to cut the Special edge sections on the top?

Look like a very nice project…

Will be nice watching the blow-by-blow building process…

Thank you…

The ability to see a few steps ahead serves you well. This is a great example of the value of planning your cuts.
