Dry Fitting Success
WHAT’S NEW WITH US?
Currently at the WEI workshop we are starting to make progress on the second and third table. Wait, at the same time? Well yes; we are working to make two at once. The first table took us a bit of work but with all the bumps in the road patched up, we are taking off to the skies.
The first table that was actually tested for fit.
Questions you may have for us:
Q: Can you still order a table for your home today?
A: We are waiting for your emails and phones so you can support the
students and get a chance to cherish a piece of history in your own home.
Q: Can you customize measurements of the slab?
A: We are willing to shorten the table top just for you. Replacing your dining
table for this beautiful art work will be worthwhile.

GLIMPSE INTO THE FUTURE
In the next couple of weeks we want to have finish on our first table. Hopefully we can get loads of sanding done in the upcoming week and open up some space in the shop for other things to be accomplished. The students will be embarking on producing a second and third table for the
in the next two weeks. The production team is up for the challenge and hopefully they succeed at the task at hand. There is only about a month left for the goal to be complete.
Bow ties help seal the cracks and keep the wood from splitting. Method is efficient and keeps most of the natural wood.
Check in next issue to see where the tables and when you can cash in on new furniture for your house.
CLOSING THOUGHTS
In the near future the students plan on completing at least three tables by the end of the semester. The overall goal is to produce and sell four tables. Hopefully our readers out there, will support our goal and buy this piece of Hokie History. We want you to have this piece of Virginia Tech and chersih it
for centuries.
