That's sure some quality wood working, you obviously know what you're doing.  And from the background in the pics the right tools to get it done.  Gorgeous!!

Thank you so much...  I'm just a weekend warrior when it comes to wood projects.  

I routed out the hole yesterday for the center granite piece.  Man that was some work!  Fits good now. 

Today is sanding day for me, oh joy   I may spray some SPAR on the drawers and doors as well...

Hi,  The eggs sizes are Large and Small

Here are some more boring pics.  Started the finish work which of course takes forever.  Pulled the drawers and doors first and will do the inside after these guys are fully completed.

Well I am almost done with the finish on the cabinet itself.  Still need to do the top.  Its a process

Back to your picture of the routed hole for the granite piece.  That looks like a great water collection feature.  Are you going to use calking around the opening?  Or what?

Yeah I know, but that is why my plans are to seal it very good with clear silicone.  Plus I am making a cover from boat canvas material which will be somewhat waterproof.  My wife keeps reminding me this is an outdoor project and not furniture LOL...

Getting down to the last little bit.  Finish the top and I'm ready for Thanksgiving

I cannot possibly express how jealous I am.  Beautiful job.

mscaggs

Well that is a very nice thing to say, thank you...

Beautiful work.  I really like the curved ends of the top, and the grain of the wood on the cabinet doors. Really nice details!

I am looking for a BGE table--not handy enough to do it myself.  Any ideas and price range. 

mscaggs

I see guys in Craigs List who build some tables once in awhile.  Now sure...  I have been asked to build these tables but I don't have an interest as they are a LOT of work...

Got the last coat of finish on the top today so I decided to add power to the table.  I am very close now )

mscaggs

I did a little sewing this morning and made part of the cover.  The material is Sunbrella which I ordered from Sailrite and is very nice stuff and waterproof.  Those guys use this stuff on boats.  Anyway, now I need to make up the domes for the eggs.  That will interesting getting that under my machine to sew

Those end electrical boxes will make good pick-up points for installing goose neck type lamps through the top at each end.  Looking good.

Agreed.  What I haven't figured out yet is exactly what types of light I wants.  I figure the power will be good for radios, electric starters, lights, etc...

table is finally done!  woot woot!  Now I need to finish the cover and put the large egg together.  Kinda glad this project is over...

Nice job! Finished product is classy, I really like the green LED lighting.

mscaggs

Thanks for all the nice comments.  I finished the cover this morning with some pretty limited upholstery skills.  I made the domes a little loose as that was the hardest part for me.  Now I have to move this beast to the back patio across some grass!  Figured I would lay down some plywood and ease it back there.
