Not without pantyhose, that would be obscene.

I guess this is for the politician who wants to stump his/her constituents, but realizes they might have to get out of town in a hurry...

Another one of those giant tables. While the shiny finish is good protection it's not my cup of tea.

You can fool the ladies and children with a bench and some tools/wood chips on the floor. But if you want to impress the big boys you need...

Once you make a toolbox that fits all your tools perfectly, you can't get any new tools.

That's what the drawers in the bench are for, you don't actually use the tools in the box.

Youze guys that drool over slab tables, it's not at hard as you think. It's been mentioned slabs are available in many places, here's one in CA.

Know anything about kiln-dried wood? I've got wood, and a kiln somebody gave us.

I assume the kiln is small, I mean like not big enough for 8' ft planks. Probably the sizes that would fit your kiln would fit in an oven.
Kiln drying requires a low heat and moving air to carry the moisture away. It's much faster than air drying and the time varies with the species. The finish moisture content also depends on what the wood is going to be used for.

If you've got the time you could hammer out some really cool hardware for your kids toy chest. But if you have a kid with a toy chest you probably don't have the time.

I figure I can season fresh wood, for use as fire wood, by kiln drying it? Good point about the air circulation, though. Not sure how I'd accomplish that.
