    This is really cool. I had never seen this. Dissolving steel wool into vinegar and then using it as a "stain".

    Nice work. I'm quite jealous! You going to sell any of that walnut or keep to use?

    The picture of what the slab was supposed to look like, looks like they used HDR in the photography(assuming it's the same slab that was actually delivered).

    I edited my original post with: I would probably just take the 1000 bucks, since once I start using my desk, it's 75% covered with my PC/work stuff. But this is also a good idea.

    What is the walnut finished with, do you know? Is that picture they sent you an actual picture of the slab you received(ie: the grain patterns match, it's just the color/hue that are different)? I would probably just take the 1000 bucks, since once I start using my desk, it's 75% covered with my...

    Oh, man! The old Prexus boards. Now I gotta' go read some old hall of fame threads there for the nostalgia kick. Is this Gartho person working on Pantheon or something? I haven't been keeping up with all the riveting Pantheon news lately.

    No need for explanations. It's an awesome desk and if you got the dough, no point in not spending it on stuff you want!

    Nice! Can't beat walnut! This is like the supersized version of what I have. I have almost the identical base, but my top is a slightly smaller solid wood countertop from Ikea. Been a great, solid desk for years now. What did that walnut slab run you?

    Any suggestions for learning Sketchup? I did a few video tutorials, but I still have a very rudimentary understanding of all it can do.

    If I lived closer, I would come over and smoke meth on that beige couch. I don't smoke meth, mind you, but I feel like that is what that couch was made for.

    I just watched a few videos on that Keda dye and some of that stuff looks unbelievably cool. Regardless of this current project, I'm definitely going to check that stuff out.

    So next project is a liquor bar/cabinet that will mount on the wall. Something similar to this thing in the picture, except my wife wants it to be dark blue. I'm thinking either poplar or plywood, but I'm dreading painting. No matter how well I can put it together, if the paint job ain't good...

    I just recently watched this guy's video and really like this break-down sheet table, for cutting up 4x8 stuff. I have a big sheet rack that stores stuff vertically and you can cut it right on the rack with a circular saw, then move to the table saw. I've been finding that stuff stored on there...

    RIP Ray Liotta dead at age 67

    Been noticing a lot of celebrities passing away around mid 60s and all I can think of is me retiring at 65 and then dying like 5 months later. I would be so goddamn pissed.

    I'm telling you, man. All the most helpful YouTubers are in the frozen north. Maybe I'll start a Florida Man DIY in the Swamp channel. As of now, I'm considering going this route. Cheap and, if the dirt is too soft, it can at least be easily removed/fixed.

    Ok, so my garage is pretty much turning into my dedicated wooodworking shop, but I have a bunch of shit I still need to get out of it. This has prompted me to start planning to build a shed in our(very small) backyard. I need to info and advice on the foundation for the shed. Right now it's just...

    Finishing up the bearded dragon terrarium. I'd prefer to never make anything out of melamine again, that's for sure. This was the first project I cut glass on as well. Made the doors out of poplar and cut / installed glass to fit. Lighting/heating are installed. I was going to put this on a...
