And again, mega thanks to the guys who helped contribute cigar bands.
Snkbyt, onlyonerm, Sancho, and DragonMan made huge contributions.
And the Detroit crew has always looked out for me to make sure I left herfs w/ tons of bands. I still have many bands left and a few other projects on the horizon :ss

Damn! I keeping grunting and touching myself every time I look at that table.
Most excellent work!! Can you give us an estimate of how many man hours you put into that? You may have inspired me to do something like that, of course it would be but a shadow of what you have created.

Nonsense- we dont have any special skills or anything. A monkey could do this stuff
Probably 20-25 hours of actual labor put into this table- but a ton of cure time for the epoxy and carefully planning steps is important. Just take your time and try your best to be creative and innovative with the materials you use and the design you decide on.

Ok, so I have special skills, at least thats what they told me on the short bus. :ss I am now in search of a monkey, so i can pull this off.
In hind sight, would u have done anything different? Looks like 3/4 in. ply u used? You said oak i believe? Any reason a guy couldn't use a lighter thiner plywood? I would need to be able to move and store it. Thanks for shaing this with the Jungle.
:r touche.
I'm pretty happy w/ everything. Ryan can probably chime in if he can think of anything he would rather change. I think the only thing that I would change are taking a little more time on the primary cuts to make them more uniform. It didnt cause a problem in the table as you see it now, but we had to take a bit more time to try and line up things to make sure they were in their original positions when cuts werent perfectly uniform.
Yep, we used 3/4 inch oak ply. We thought about 1/2 inch, but ultimately, you're putting a lot of weight on it with the epoxy and we wanted to error on the side of caution to make sure we had enough stability and rigidity. Having done it, I think you could pull of 1/2 inch ply if you needed to.

Now THAT'S a stellar project.
Oh snap- I cant leave out the Southern Ontario boys. You guys hooked me up big as well
Now would you be referring to the dirty underwear coffee table or the cigar band poker table?
