Bet it got shipped in a flat container, at some point. I also bet that the owner got it delivered assembled or it was assembled there, and she doesn't remember. Take tools, a ratchet strap(s) and a thick blanket if you have a sturdy rack. Nice looking table!

A sturdy rack is essential.

I have decided that life is too short to put up with crappy keyboards, so after some investigation I bought a Logitech MX Keys keyboard. So far I am happy with it and can recommend it to anyone here planning to buy a keyboard.

Here is a YouTube video about it.

No One!

What the hell is wrong with you? Why would you ruin a good baby/puppy stew by adding kats to it?

My god, I just don't understand people :-\

Two cans of clear shellac for huffing purposes. :bleh: J/K, I was applying it to the drawers of a tool chest I'm building. I sprayed that as fast as I could and got out of Dodge. I like the finish, but man, it stinks. I left the exhaust fan in the "shop" running and stayed away for a few hours until the stench had sufficiently diminished. I'd've done it outside, but the wind blows like crazy around here, and I didn't want sand in the finish.

DL I thought that shellac had gone out with buggy whips and hooped skirts.
