For Zee Goffee, who wanted to see the pool table :D

Cypress pine legs, tasmanian oak struts, restained raiils, all I have to do today is seal the top, and then tonight we're felting it! (And [livejournal.com profile] torasin will finish staining the legs and struts)

For comparison, when we dragged it home and pulled off the useable parts, it looked like this








Still needing to be sealed and stained, but the structural work is all done and level. I ended up cutting new legs from 90x90 dressed cypress pine, and fitting Tasmanian oak for the struts at 45c angles to brace it. You have to pretty much run into this thing at full tilt to get it to wobble, and it's light enough for two people to move :D Now I've done the wood bashing, it's time for [livejournal.com profile] torasin to do the putty sanding and the fussy fussy staining ^_^




Much like he's doing here :D


[livejournal.com profile] torasin and I make a great team. I build 'em, he stains 'em :)



Today I'll seal the top, then later on tonight we felt it, reattach the rails and voila! WE HAS POOL TABLE! *dances*
