Default Re: I Want To Build A Table

[ QUOTE ]
My brother is a carpenter. If he wakes up at 7am and starts working, how long will it take him to build a table? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Lets assume he is making one exactly like this, just for the sake of my question.

I'm at work, and the pictures arent loading. I'm assuming it looks like pismeyers table in the thread below.

If it's completely upholstered, and you have everything bought, you should easily be able to rack it out in 3 hours or so. the layout and the cutting doesnt take too long. The upholstery will probably slow you down the most, because most carpenters dont do it. Add a couple hours more if you have to go to the lumberyard and the fabric store, cuz that stuff takes a surprising amount of time

If you have a racetrack, you have a lot of time waiting for multiple coats of stain and polyurethane to dry. This ends up taking a day or two more, because there isnt much you can do while stuff dries.
