Great job. How do you do those funky front edges? I'm handicapped when it comes to wood working!

When I built my stand it took about 12 hours or so. I am considering a canopy aswell. Hurry up so I can see how yours turns out, it will give me motivation to do mine

I'm no carpenter either.. lol But having the right tools makes a huge difference.My pop's gave me his router,and it's my new favourite toy.

You can get all kinds of moldings and trim at HD, to get the "funky " edges.And the router can do some very cool stuff as well.
Thnx for the kind words guy's

Gotta do some levelling still...man is my basement floor out to lunch!
