:( or :D or :? - still up in the air. I'm building a game table (board, card, interactive, etc) that has multiple table-tops that are interchangeable on the larger base. The base serves as game storage and is weight tested to 800lbs (can probably do double that).

It's projects like these that remind me you can never have too many clamps. I have 8 clamps in action right now and have to stop work again as I need about 20.

Right now i'm leaning toward really liking the end result, but it could also turn into a frankenstein hunk of wood.

Id love to see some pictures. I have modified some tables to be game tables (by adding a sub floor under the actual table top and making the table top removable). But I am always curious to how you build things.

And no, you can never have too many clamps.

Hey man, that sucks you haven't sold the house yet, but congrats on the move!

I knew someone here had one, I just could not remember who. Do you have an auto damper, or any of the 3rd party tools?

I just found a local butcher who has great prices last week:

Holy crap, that place sells beefalo. :shock:

:( Headache like a son of gun. Not a migraine or anything, but it's killing me, and I already hit the limit on painkillers. Hate when this happens.

Also looks like I might have to drop my Italian Cinema class. I'm currently waiting to see how my grade on this last test turns out, but considering the amount of time I have to devote to it in comparison to how important the class is to my degree, it's probably better if I drop it so I can focus more heavily on my other classes. Plus, due to a last minute change at the beginning of the semester, it only counts as a Cultural Diversity credit, not a Cultural Diversity and Art credit like it normally does. Taking it all in, it probably will have to go.
