What? I've got a 6 page thread about making ONE set and you want me to make HOW MANY?????

(theres a (lol) in there somewhere)


Well, once you set up your machines, what is the difference between 1 set and 10 sets? Man up and get on with it!!

I love the smell of sawdust in the mornings!

Yes sunnybob come on we've put a lot of effort into this we want to see results!
 
Brian, you came in late so we'll excuse you.
I dont have a machine that will cut repeats.

I think you lot have scared him off. i dais it ight go to 150 and havent had a reply yet.
Phew! that was a close shave.
 
Hello,

Sunnybob, are you going to do there tables, I'm filled with anticipation now? It must be straightforward to make the legs now, I don't see how it could be simpler now.

Mike, waiting on a reply to my latest quote.

Hello,

€150 is cheap!!! If your friend doesn't want to pay that amount, he doesn't realise what a bargain he is getting. I suggest a maker who needs to earn a living at making stuff would ask in the order of 3 times that.

Mike.
 
why do you think he's asking me? he knows I'm cheap and I work to my best ability. But no, deep down I dont really want to do this.
 
oh dear oh dear oh dear.

Even from the land of the camels, he's just asked for a progress report on his tables. I thought I'd gotten a years grace.

So its a live show again boys. I'm set on 9 mm ply doubled up for the legs. I've got his final measurements of tray being 14" x 18" with a 2" lip, and tray surface 20" above ground.

Now all I have to do is get jacob to lend me his pencil.....
 
It is with great sadness I have to announce the death of the stacking tables project.

Once I got into drawing the things out full scale and realising the scope for errors in my hand drawing skills I told him its way beyond my skill set. I could make 1 or 21 of them, but i couldnt guarantee any three would fit together with that amount of accuracy.
Thanks to all who did and offered to help. much appreciated, but i now know my limits.
