Table...What should I do?

being from California, don’t you simply sit in floor mats and pass the rice bowl around? why do you need a table?

Thanks Katdaddy. Good idea.
Teejk, currently you are correct. I would like to upgrade to a table. You do bring up a good point. Do I really need a table? What do you guys think?

And what will these “guests” of yours SIT UPON once you build this table?

Oh suuuuure! You didnt even THINK about chairs, now did you??? :-)

Joein10asee, I was thinking I would use short legs and continue to sit on the mats. However, I might want to go full out and build chairs also. Maybe I’ll do that after I build my confidence with the table. So many decisions… What do you guys think? Do chairs go well with a table? Would it be hard to go with short legs now and then extend them later? Oh my…

This is the table and chairs you should build.

Jim454, that is sooooooo cool. Where did you find it? Do you have plans? It looks like the legs can be removed? Is that so?

if you want chairs, you may want to consider floatation…much of the country prays every day for the big quake that will detach the Granola State from the US and send it elsewhere.

Yes I have the plans for $199.00 for the table and $299.00 for chairs plans and they tell you what tools to use what wood to buy and the beat part all you need a hammer nails & hand saw and you are good to go. Sorry the price dose not include tools and wood.

Teejk, why is everyone so hostile towards CA? If it wasn’t for CA who would set the fashions and fads? The remainder of the US would be lost without us?

Jim454, I’ll think about it. Is the price firm? Any room for negotiation?

tables are actually quite east to make. just a top, three or four legs, and some narrowerr boards to connect the legs to each other.

whether for a TV…

along a wall….

or, just hold a lamp…

I do have a few, in my Projects page….

Bandit, can you loan me the plans?

$150.00 for table and 250.00 for chairs plans is the low as I can go.

Plans? I did those for just scraps in the shop. How ever the parts fitted together, is how they turned out. Mostly a Mission Style for the larger ones. TV table was from recycled picnic table parts, and a few pieces of plywood for shelves.

Another good source would be the two books that Norm Abrams put out. One can still order a DVD and plan from Norm…

Teejk, you know I was thinking if you guys lost CA then UT would be the style and pacesetter for the US.

DKV “if you guys lost CA then UT would be the style and pacesetter for the US”

nah…normal people in what you guys call “fly over country” would again prevail…people that actually pull their weight and don’t expect much unless they really need it on a temporary basis.
