We have two 6’ butcher block table tops and some already welded (but need to be modified) sets of legs available to make more tables for the 3D Fab Room.
I am looking for volunteers to help with:
- Finishing the table tops - like @AlexRhodes and company did with the first two table tops (see “linked” thread below regarding the first set that was built)…
- Re-welding & finishing the legs - like Trent, @Derek_Davis, @SRichardson3D, etc… helped on the first two sets of legs…
I would really like for the tables to be completed at least a week before the Big Open House (that will be held on January 25th) - to ensure the 3D Fab Room is ready for the event!
The two tables built before were both 4’ long - which is what I had originally planned for the rest of the tables; however, as we have grown and our needs for space have changed, the specs for the tables should be re-evaluated.
We have three options basically.
-
The original plan: Cut 2’ off both butcher blocks, make two 4’ tables and two 2’ square tables to place in the corner - perhaps a touch taller than the 4’ tables
-
Alt plan A: Cut 2’ off one of the butcher blocks to end up with one each: 1x 2’ square table, 1x 4’ table, 1x 6’ table.
-
Alt plan B: Leave both table tops the full 6’, ending up with two longer 6’ tables.
If anyone has any suggestions / strong opinions on the sizes of tables we build, please post ASAP - as Alex has offered to cut them down to size on Thursday, if we know what we want by then.
Also, there are two additional butcher blocks for the Arts Room… So if anyone wants to pitch in and help with those, too, I’m sure @Haley_Moore would really appreciate it!
Tagging the following so they are kept in the loop: @Robert_Davidson, @Danny, @themitch22, @AndrewLeCody… Anyone else wanna stay in the loop on this thread, please reply with how you want to volunteer to get these tables built!
Thanks, y’all!
