Well, I'm getting further on Waldo's new tort table. Much more work then I thought at first, and I'm learning some things along the way. For instance...

1. Two people with four hands makes life a lot easier (if I can drag hubby away from what he's doing lol)
2. 2x12's do NOT make good sides, WAY too heavy, cut down plywood, much much better.
3. You tortoise wont care if it doesn't look perfect, just as long as it's safe.
4. A 2x4 does not acctually measure 2 inches by 4 inches. (Boy did that throw all my math off!)

I'm not done with it yet, (In fact I only have the base done) but it's getting there, and I would have worked on it a lot today, but hubby drove off with the rest of my wood this morning when he went to work lol. Cant wait till it's done though, it'll be really nice!
