oh and legally your not allowed to do anything except move your project from 17th on wards but you can guess that no body follows the rules in regards to this

i made that poker table this year ... spent US$20 on plans and 1500 on raw timber ... the plans were ok but i ended up changing alot of little things to make it easier for me ... it was very hard to get all the corners to line up perfectly... and i changed the timber to jarrah and camphor laurel.. instead of the oak which they wanted... the major floor i found in the the plans was that they assume for you to puchuase a pedestal ... i found it very hard to make the pedestal without plans... i finished it with tongue oil as it was quick and looked good ... these fotos dont really do it justice.... let me know what you think ?
post your major work photos ??
