The self-same moment I could pray;

And from my neck so free

The Albatross fell off, and sank

Like lead into the sea.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner (NY: Appelton, 1857), 31.

So how was your hour? Productive Im guessing? Or maybe, like me, you got into the project and an hour turned into 2, 2.5, 3 lol.

My hour turned into 2 because I had to pause for ice cream.... that I saw my wife preparing as I peeled downstairs last night.

March 23: Framed the top. I used 6" centers.

Next step: Deck the bottom before attaching the top.

March 24: Forgot all about the next step and attached the top. Aw pith!

Next step: Put the table saw in the middle of the basement floor (done) and deck the bottom :rofl:

Unlike Cabinet #1, the bottom deck on this cabinet is in one piece; no verticle support in the middle.

Once I stick the top plywood down. I'll see how much the top sags with 300lbs on it. If it sees more than 0.005", I'll prop it up.

Instead of built-in shelving, this one will have removable storage; a small bookshelf built out of scrap plywood.

Next steps: buy more carpenter's glue and screws, attach the top deck, frame in the door, sheet in the front sides.

looks good! did you see any sag?

I was in Edm all day today, so I won't get to this until tomorrow night.

I'd use it for a car ramp, but it's pretty mucky outside.happy.png So once the glue sets, my wife and I will dance on it and see what happens.

I stuck the top on just before supper.

(ahem) bar sag: 0.002"... great top deck design James!

Used to do this on the bar speakers in the 80s. good times.

On to framing the front door and sheeting in the sides... tomorrow.
