I vote yes, nice table.

 

Could always laminate hardwood together for the top and use a router to make faux joint lines

 

Keiff, build the table. It'll add some class and the dents and scratches over the years will become memories not burdens

put your bumper on the hitch first. then put it on the truck. it's a pita and definitely a 2 man job

not that easy on 05+

especially after repeated rear end tweaking if wheeled hard

 

That would work, or even do the hardwood 1x6s on top of 1x6 to make up the original thickness.

You like the end grain exposed? Could always picture frame around to hide the two differently materials

 

I can special order many different types of wood. The issue is cost and the smaller mom & pop suppliers may be a better choice to source.

 

Tom - do you have any vines in your yard? I'm looking to put up a screen about 16' long x 10' tall made out of horizontal stainless steel steel cables and I need a good fast climbing vine to plant for it.

 

I'm actually surprised at how much different material stock that the local hd has here

 

x2, maybe it's a Canadian thing. People up here actually know what to do with their wood.

 

There's a few sawmills around here so I can pretty much get anything I want in any dimension

 

Desert life problems yo!

Cut down a cactus and make a coffee table out of it

 

DOOO IT

 

Now that is cool

 

Sup y'all, just ran a rugged maniac 5k... I'm now covered in mud and freezing, wish it wasn't 55*

Do a cactus table, but no glass top needs a long grain top

 

My market has Poplar, Clear, and Red Oak in up to 5/4 sizes.

It is not standard and varies widely by market.
