    didn't see the dog food in the fridge :)

    There is a commercial running right now about a guy who has someone over to his place, but she scorns him for putting the [fancy @ss] dog food in the fridge. cut to her in the hall and him apologizing to the dog.

    First I have heard of Cosequin. I will look into that for my older German. She want's to run with the younger one, but you can tell she is a bit sore and stiff after. Thanks for the indirect tip.

    years ago i used to just buy glucosamine chondroitin from the pharmacy for my old german shepard, he made 18 years old before i had to put him down from a failed bladder. was probably about 12 when i started him on it, just gave him what i was taking. takes a month or two to start working and showing improvement, for me i would take it for 8 months and stop for a couple and start it up again, seemed to work best if i stopped and started back up. for the dog i just break it up in his food once a day

    Great supplement for the 4 legged friends and Costco is the best place to buy from that I've found.

    Love the live edge!  Since it will get wet, what top coat did you use over the stain?

    Way to surface @Sea2Ski.  Quite a project right there.  
    Regarding the drying cycle, air dried wood will come into equilibrium with the surroundings in around 6-9 months or so depending on location.  Here's quite a resource for wood from the Forest Products Lab: (Chapter 13 on drying)
    https://research.fs.usda.gov/treesearch/62200 FWIW.

    Lol my egg table is nothing impressive just deck boards and some 4x4. I used arm r seal satin because im not too big of a fan of shiny wood. 3 coats and sanded on top and 3 coats on the bottom to keep the wood moisturized. Turns out amazing, the wood is walnut.

    Thanks everyone

    Time to stack this before moving on.

    Did you coat your car, if so what did you use? I want to do my wife’s car next weekend, but am a little worried about leaving a high spot.

    I haven’t. I’m in the same boat about doing it DIY or just pay the pros.

    My initial thought is that butter is placed at the top of the “ramp”. The heat melts it and it runs down the slope. My guess is the pan is for fish.

    Some sort of reverse grease trap? Funnel it on out the top

    That was my thought at first, swirl the pan counter-clockwise and pour some of the grease out (there's even a notch in the rim) but I can't visualize how that would work very well, or any advantage over a normal pan...

    My back hurts just looking at those photos!  Congrats on finishing a big project, and especially for "guiding" SWMBO to a logical conclusion.
