The Epiphany:
Create a Dining/Game Room in the existing Sun Room.
We have been enjoying jigsaw puzzles lately and needed a table large enough to work on. In addition, the table would transform the room into a Dining Room when needed!
MC was up to the challenge !!!! so it was a GO.
We went to his favorite "Toy Store"
First things first, get the right cart!
On to the lumber aisles to get just the right pieces for the legs and sides.
Once those pieces were selected, we found the perfect MDF board to be the table's top.
It had to be cut down to the correct size, primarily so we could get it in the car to take home.
The size of our trunk determined the size of the table!
The check out aisle, have to pay for this!
Next the car's trunk. We were on a roll.
(Those of you with sharp eyes recognize the checkout is at Home Depot, not Lowes. Everything was bought at Lowe's except for the MDF because the big saws at both our nearby Lowe's were out of order).
In no time we were home and unloading all our treasures into the garage
MC had to cut the legs and sides and then proceeded to assemble the table in no time.........
We have arrived at the slow period.....The Sanding. MC attacks this process like a candidate would approach a Doctorate Degree. Never quite finished. Always more to do or sand!!!!!
Finally he said he was satisfied!
One more step to do......Paint.........
Hopefully, weather permitting, painting will go fast and MC can reveal his masterpiece soon, VERY soon...........................
