First career or second?
Hobby?
Me.
I am not doing this professionally, I only have a few commissions. There is no way I could make a living on those.
For me it is a hobby that sometimes pays for itself

Right now it's all a mess for some costume work I'm doing. Making a Mad Max: Fury Road outfit for a convention at the end of the month.

Farm Table Glue up completed......
To quote Norm....
"Now we will just let that cook."
I had a moment when I realized that I did not have the clamps to clamp this up. I had to go and buy some longer pipe for the pipe clamps.

I've used couplers to join pipe together when I need oversize lengths, works well.

+1
I've got 5' pipes, but if I need a 6', I couple some 3' or so together.

Fellas, this ain't my first glue up
By time I coupled the pipe I would have been short by over half of what I needed to glue up this table top.

I’ve got some old iron 8’ long bar clamps.
Was searching for pics but found this instead:
