One question , what are the two black marks at each end of the table, tool marks from the router base?[/QUOTE]

The black marks/lines are for reference, I used gorrilla glue and 1 inch brad nails to secure the top to the C shape frame. Without a line of reference, I would miss more than I would hit. I was going to go all out and use dovetail ends. But here is my theory with this build they wanted simple, light duty, and old fashioned look. They got simple and still very sturdy.

Here is What I used to build this:
All bought from home depot
1- panel 18x 48- less than 10 bucks
1 1x4 7 ft long- about 6 bucks
1 pkg of 100 count 1 in brad nails 7.99 I think.
1 all purpose gorrilla wood glue. About 6.00
Wood putty 6.97

I used some of the scrap pieces for the sides and faceplate on the botbit. The pic is the plu from home depot.

I used gorilla glue to build a very nice 2017 for myself.

TLDR: Spent $900 getting truck ready to go, 2 hours from home blew a gasket, going to miss youngest daughter's first Christmas.

Yeah, I finally got all caught up on this thread. Been a busy few days getting ready to leave for Christmas at my families 7 hrs away. Schedule is check into hotel, dinner at Moms tonight, Grandmas traditional Christmas eve dinner, Christmas breakfast at dads, drive home day after. Girls have been up there all week with grandparents.
Spent last 2 days running around getting truck fixed, and reservoirs set up for all the girls. $450 on truck, oil change, 3 coils, 4wd transfer case motor. Spent another $460 on 2 new tires(other 2 still half new) going to great white north, all ready.
Got 2 hours from home, chugging up a hill (pulling enclosed trailer) and suddenly Blue smoke blowing out the back. I'm thinking oh s*** blew rings or main seal or worse. Get pulled over and nothing coming out exhaust, (kinda better) just dripping onto and burning. Looked underneath, hard to find anything as the whole bottom is covered in oil. Drive another mile to the next exit, didnt want to check on steep decline, get it shut off check the oil, and actually didn't lose that much, and leak seems to have slowed. Turned around and nursed it back home, no going into overdrive, lotsa nasty looks on interstate. Stopped once and added a quart. Lost 2 quarts getting home.
Only other vehicle right now is red car the deer killed, still driveable, but not far and not at night.
So now going to miss the youngests first Christmas. At least she's with all my family...

just finished snowblowing the walks and then plowed driveway. Paid $1,056 for a garage door to be replaced. assholes need to learn to drive
Fools abound.

The fence line that runs down the side of my driveway has been wiped out 5 times. Fuckers.:finger:
Each time all that was offered was "I'm sorry". I know that, but your sorry does not pay for a replacement.:cuss:

A few years ago (when I say that usually it means decades) I was working underneath my '74 Mazda RX4 rotary coupe in the driveway, finished up and moved the car out of the driveway. ~20 minutes later a drunk driver in a pickup flew around the corner, skidded across my driveway and hit the car next door, sending it crashing into his garage door, mowed down a beautiful flowering dogwood, and finally smashed into his fence.

This is my first grow in more than 30 years, first indoor grow ever. It is a practice run with old saved seed while I wait for the real deal to arrive. I have been gathering advise, here and elsewhere, that has been invaluable. I have 10 in 5gal. plastic- 2 months at 18/6. I switched to 12/12 five days ago and this morning I have 2 unmistakable females. No males expressing yet. I'm familiar with basic horticultural technique. I collect, propagate, and cross-pollinate Haworthias and Aloes and their relatives. I was injured at work 2 years ago and I'm feeling better and ready for a new challenge. I varied conditions (e.g., soils, nutrients, light distances and pruning techniques. The proof's in the pudding. I expect to be an expert by next Tuesday. Maybe later.

No groceries in house, all meat frozen, so homemade tomato soup and grilled cheese for dinner. Shoulda made my own bread to be authentic, but didn't have 5 hours. Maybe tomorrow since we're stuck at home. Should mix up a biga tonight.

And the downside to having a clone 2 weeks behind the first, in your first closet grow. 2 different nutrient needs, plus plain water for the clones and seedlings.
Super resrvoir setup. Gonna let it run for 3 days, as is, and see if it woulda made it.
