Table

Hey guys...

I went to the Home depot today to check the wood boards. The thickest board is 1 inch. They said if we want thicker board, we have to glue them together.

oh...there is also some boards thicker than 2 inchs, but they are not big enough...

hmm...does anyone know any other place where I can find large wood boards?

I will aslo check another Home Depot Pro/Design Center tomorrow see if they have larger size one.

Table Legs

Lucia and I bought some table legs at IKEA today. They connect
to the table top with 1" screws, so the board for the table top
should be about 1.5" thick. If not we can get shorter screws.
They are adjustable from 27" to 35" tall. Lucia will bring them
on Thursday. They cost $60.90 after tax, so $5 per person.
