>Beautiful work Kevin.

This well illustrates my belief that a good woodworker is not only proficient with tools, but also able to visualise the shape within the shape, and release it.

>toss such a nice looking table onto the dump?! Certainly not a Yankee I dare well say. Keep a strong eye on the out-'a- staters Kevin, they've no sense and surely will be tossing out more treasures. Next thing you know the Keno Brothers will be found sulking around the dump.

Now I'm not a huge fan of painted Wood, but even I'd have to say that you've done a wonderful job saving this little gem.

As like Steve, I'd like to know more about that curious lamp. Hope no Fire Inspectors see how you've got it connected to the lightning, :~O tho I suppose the cat enjoys cuffing that dangler around eh? ;~)

>The DUMPMIESTER himself?!! It was his great aunts, who owned a doll house store. sho have many of these tables and when she died he got three of them. This was the last one he had, he wanted a table for him and his son to build 'Legos' on but this one has warpped to a crown in the center, not good for build tall things.

I thought I posted a pic of those lamps. their made from old food/meat grinders, although not the really old or nice ones.

Hey it's a 60 watt lamp not a toaster. Give the guy a break. Geeesh

I hadn't noticed the meat grinder lamp until you brought this up. Pretty cool.

>Actually there's a 24 watt in it, it's more like a glorified night light.

I got an email from the Dumpmiester, I sent him the pic, he wants his table back.

I'd tell him he could have it back...
