<p>[QUOTE="springfld.arsenal, post: 345813, member: 54"]On a related topic, here’s our helper with a table frame (grey thing on left) we’re topping[ATTACH=full]116810[/ATTACH] basically the same way as the maple table. He’s glueing together two very sturdy oak table leaves from that dumpster find, using Gorilla glue and some scrap pieces of 3/4” plywood. Grey frame (33x33x36”) is all made of approx. 3/16” thick steel welded together by unknown previous owners as a platform for some unknown machinery. Think we paid $30. or so; it weighs about 250 lbs and yes, is heavier than needed for most tables that size, but we <i>like</i> “heavy” if you haven’t noticed![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
