    Of course with Dh help we made this Picnic table. I stained it and did the umbrella and helped with the making. It was made out of pallet wood we got free.

    That's very nice, Springbme1. I see you have a stack of wood behind the picnic table; do you have any plans for it?

    Hopefull with all the wood my Dh and I can make more tables and sell them. Would be nice. I think he may use someof the wood to build the basement bedroom and family room. It was all free pallet wood from a contruction site. Which carried the better wood. I couldnt belive it was pallet wood. Of course you have to pull the nails out. LOL. Just bought my DH a table saw umm but he wont let me use it. I have to give it to him and tell him what i want done. UMM

    Very nice job on the table.

    I wish we could get that nice of pallet wood around here.

    Why won't hubby let you use the table saw?? Confused That seems a bit unreasonable. I bought my hubby a table saw several years back and I think I probably use it more than he does. When we got together, I owned more power tool than he did.

    nice table! that must have been some huge pallet to make a table that big! I've only ever seen small pallets around here.
    bjanddee, don't tell me you never replaced the miter saw, omg that was months ago. I would have been out buying one before the dead one was even buried properly. That's some great restraint on your part, for sure. gardengirl, my dh bought me a tablesaw for xmas a few years ago and then he made the mistake of loaning it out to a friend of his one time. I flipped out and asked how would he like it if I loaned out his golf clubs? point taken, he never did that again. Wink
    springbme1, please be careful if you do use the saw, maybe you can have dh give you some lessons on it first? that way he would probably feel better about you using it. good luck with the back surgery. Hope you have a quick recovery.
