Thread: dining room table design

Thread: Sauna build
Post: RE: Sauna build
The inside footprint is 6x6. It's big enough to hold 4 people comfortably, or 6 people if you're already good friends. |

Post: Re: How to shrink wood?
It's a fact that wood shrinks when it's cold. Heck, if I'm even a little bit chilly it happens. /ssl_proxy.php?url=/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif |
