Yes fine sand will work

I agree that that would look pretty cool. I will notify you when its done

I purchased all the boards from a big hardware store. Each piece was wrapped in plastic. Cedar would look awesome in my opinion.

The gaps i do have are very small and not many. I really need to invest in a planer. That would alleviate the gaps for sure

Yeah this is quite heavy but very solid. I like it a lot and thanks!

Thanks!

I believe the pipe cost a total of 25 bucks and the top was about 8

Not sure about that. I found this one on Reddit.

I purchased them from Menards. If you don't live in the Northern Midwest they are like a Home Depot. I believe they went on sale for 10 bucks a piece so I picked up 8 of them. Thanks!

Well I live in Minnesota and the materials came from the shop I work at so I paid for the 1/4 inch plate. That was 125 dollars. Everything else was scrap so I took it out of the scrap bin. My Guess is that if you were to go to a wholesale steel warehouse you could probably pick up everything for around 300 dollars.

If I did my calculations correctly it weighs approx 250 pounds. I know the plate itself weighs 184 pounds. Thanks for looking!

Im glad you liked it

Thanks

Thanks!

Thanks and you're right, I get a little too overly confident and mistakes happen very sudden

Thanks!

Thanks

I would use the pocket screws....the glue might separate over time

I bought all 8 footers

yes, but the poly will keep the stain from wearing....I've stained things in the past and with just sunlight hitting it, it will make the stain fade over time. the poly helps incredibly

thank you!

Thank you

Thank you

I crushed it at work and broke my thumb and then the thumbnail was removed by the dr.

Yes, and the only metal I have found that doesn't work is aluminum

Yes, the only metal I've tried so far that has not worked was aluminum.
