 The rest of the table is quite plain,so I would not make a jack-a-lope out 
 of it as someone else described it. If you are not going to keep it, i 
 would sell it or give to some needy college student to use. I would sell it 
 for at least the cost of poly and sand paper that you have used on it. Not 
 a bad looking table for what it is.

Re: What would you do???

2015-05-06 Thread MWF
Curtis,I was wondering who took my table out of the pile I put at the street JKThe table is a "simple" table (design-wise). I feel if you turn some "fancy" legs, you will make it like the "jack-a-lope" - too peculiar to be appreciated.My vote is to finish "refinishing" it and then either sell it via Craigslist (not eBay) or donate it to your local Salvation Army Store, Habitat for Humanity's "Re-store" or to the Red Cross or Goodwill. Definately - do NOT put it back in the trash. (If you don't want to do any of the above - it can be burned in your outdoor fireplace/chimea. Just keep it out of the landfill.) I have seen folks place items out at the curb with a sign that reads "FREE!". Some that do that even list it on CraigsList - under "Free Stuff" - as a "Curb Alert".Best of luck.Mac-Original Message-

Re: What would you do???

2015-05-06 Thread Roger P
Hi Curt
The phrase “Who said put it back in the garbage?” was British humour at play or 
even work. 

I plead guilty to doing similar things from time to time. A few years back I 
salvaged a couple of alabaster table lamp base from the skip (UK version of a 
building site dumpster which costs about $300 a week to hire) and I was going 
to clean them up  re-wire and then sell them and probably I would have made 
$100 to $150.00 on the pair, guess what they just went for re-cycling a week 
ago as we are moving house and my workshop is being cleared!

The free wood value idea is the best given the astronomic rise in the price of 
wood.

If it was me I would now sell it and realise a few bucks if I could, I would 
not spend time enhancing it unless that adds lots of dollars.
Regards
Euro Roger

If I was altering the legs I think I would do a really fast pitch like one turn 
for the length of the leg with many starts in a rope but it really is a 
personnel choice and there is heaps as you know

Make a whole new leg from scrap to see what it will look like first then if you 
don’t like it leave them as they are and warm your self with the scrap leg or 
use the designer kit and do some life size drawings of legs and stick them to 
the legs to see what new ones will look like that’s why we have the design kits 
isn’t it. I always do that.
