May 29, 2010 - I'm going to build my daughter a dining table. My brother in law lays hardwood floors and has a floor sander. He told me that once I have the table glued up, he can samd it flat with his floor sander. What do you think?

May 30, 2010 - that would work, but I would finish sand the top with a palm sander, 120 - 150 grit

Feb 22, 2011 - did he say 5/4" thick? huh?

Mar 29, 2011 - Yes. 1 and 1/4 inch thick. Lumber thickness is often referred to in "quarters." If the thickness is greater than an inch, an improper fraction is required. :)

Aug 24, 2011 - It is very poor practice to wear gloves while operating power tools. If the glove touches the blade the entire hand will be pulled into it.

Aug 25, 2011 -  Thanks, glad you liked it

jonpeters1000 Says:

Aug 25, 2011 - OK, I try not to touch blade

Sep 21, 2011 - just a question. Why did you not put the clips on the inside off the table-base? This way the clips would not show at all. beautiful table by the way!!!

jonpeters1000 Says:

Jan 4, 2012 - Thanks, good question I think I wanted more support on the outer edges of the table top
