Last November, I was home for a couple weeks (almost a month) with no shop time, courtesy of a hernia.

I scoured google images hoping not to find what I was imagining. I wanted to come up with a unique project that would be a one of a kind. I jotted down some of my famous stick figure drawings, and thought about it some more.

Then I thought, this should be done with all hand tools.

Then I thought, what the heck, no modern adhesives.

Then I thought, how about no adhesives.

Oh, idle time is a brutal demon...

Brink, Very cool and unique table. Beautiful wood and amazing use of joinery. :good2::good2::good2::drinks:

I had this slab of elm, started cutting it up with one of my recently refurbed saws.

No I don't see them. I tried to edit but???? nothing. I am not the computer wizard- yutz would be a better description. Kevin will come along and maybe he can figure it out. Sorry.
 
It looks like some are seeing it. I'm not either though.
 
Wooooooooo I can see everything. Even stuff that isn't there :cool: But I went to FB too.
 
I don't see the pics here, just on your fb page, cool work brinkster!:good::good2:
 
I don't see the pics either. I feel so left out :huh:
 
Brink, I went to your FB page and grabbed what I think is the picture you tried to upload, then I edited your post and uploaded it. Is that the right picture? If it is I understand now why you (nor I earlier) could upload it. You are saving your files as .png files sometimes, and out software does not allow .png files (because too many members want to use PNG avatars and they drive some people, like me, crazy). Use .jpg or something do not save you pics as .png.

Anyway if that's the table you're talking about it's a doosy. I love it - great imagination and execution.

:good2:

Thanx Kevin. Those the ones.

Funny thing, my phone takes jpg images. iPad just saves them, I can't change the files. When I checked my forum runner settings, I can select jpg or png. I always have jpg selected. Dunno how it changes.
