: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!
