I am only bringing this up because an old customer of mine from my furniture building days stopped in. I hadn't seen him in years and thought he had lost me or me him. Anyway, we sat around in the hot shop drinking bottle water from the fridge and talking about the old days when I made furniture. I thought he was going to try and talk me into building him something but that was luckily not the case. I just can't handle building pieces like he likes by myself anymore. But, instead he did order some bowls from me which made me feel good. It was simply good seeing him again and I go invited back out to the horse ranch any time I desire. So I thought I would show you some photos of the last thing I built for him. The table has a 2" thick pecan top with mesquite legs. The table is 10' long and about 42" wide. The benches are all pecan. I used General Finishes Outdoor Oil on it and it worked out very well. He re-oils everything about every 8 months. I have no idea how much it weighed, but it was heavy.
