Terp, I just shot you an e-mail.

Thanks for the kind words on the table.  That is exactly what momma would say...lol

Remember, gotta rough it before you can buff it.  8)
 
Timmy, what astounds me are all of these fake shots of these people pretending to work on this table when we all know you did this all by hand, ;) :D ;D :o What is even more amazing is that you did this with a raging fever, WHAT A MAN!!!!!!!!!  ::) ;D Fred
 
Looking good Timmy!!! My arms feel like they are gonna fall off from watching that guy joint that table!!! He's gonna be pretty strong when he is done!

Keep the pics coming

Timmy,
  Isn't that you on the table?

Unfortunately, that is not I on the table; that is Mr. Randy.  My physical condition has allowed me to take pictures only over the past few days.  Randy is much bigger and younger than I.

Well, the new tool arrived today.  We are very proud of our new addition to the arsenal.  After last night's thrashing regarding dust collection, I told Randy that nothing goes on this table without a vac hooked to it.  So suffice it to say, I was yelled at to "come quick, Randy needs you".  The pic below is what I saw when I walked over to the shop (we re-enacted it for the photo opp. but you get the jest of it).

Timmy, now that just cracked me up. :D ;D How was the dust collection on that plane? ;) Fred

We should probably bump up to the D50 with the plane...better large, fluffy, curly, chip collection 8)  What a SWEET PLANE!  Lie-Nielsen No. 8.  Too Bad It isn't a different color...can I say that?  :o

Timmy,
  You've made a lie neilson plane that sucks.  It's a first, usually they don't suck!  I've never seen one, in fact.  You should send it to lie & tell him it sucks  :D :D :D :D :D

  Seriously man, leave the plane curls on the floor.  You can't breath them in & it looks real impressive strewn about from a hand plane.  Unless, you are making dust.  Don't you sell waterstones?  ;D
 
Here are some updates on the Table.  The past couple of days we have taken the underside down to near flat with the Lie No. 8 followed by the RO 150 FEQ with Cristal 80 followed by one of my old Stanley 4 1/2...it's looking good.  We did not want to go all the way simply because now we have the topside to get.  Here are some shots of "the flip."  We will now work on the topside, and get it about 99% ready to roll, then flip it and actually finish the underside (stain and conversion) before we flip it again to finalize the table for the "load out."

Timmy
 
Great job Timmy.  Thanks for the update photos and I am looking forward to seeing the finished product.
 
If you know anyone interested, I have 2 pieces of Waterfall Bubinga one 41 inches wide the other 36 inches wide. Both are 8/4 and 12 feet long. $75.00 a BF. This is some beautiful stuff. This would make one heck of a confrence table.

.....Probably the neatest unexpected thing to transpire out of this little project has been the conversation aspect.
....I've answered more questions about hand planing, festool sanders, and alder in the last couple of weeks . . .

That is nice bonus, and the table looks great, but,

if there was ever a project that called out for

a Festool belt sander with sanding frame,

this was it.
 
Whilst I was away on a little spring break action with the Fam.  Randy has made leaps...perhaps bounds...(he is sometimes light on his feet) with the table.  After the purchase of yet another LN scraper, I think we are ready for some RS 2 E and some ETS 150/3 action.

Here are some latest shop pics.
