Cratter Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 I want to give a thanks to Jim, because the picture I used in the center logo was the one he gave. I simply printed it out on my computer on high gloss paper. There's a picture of me, incase anyone wants to find and sue me for copyright laws. http://siouxsports.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3438&hl= 4' x 8' 3/4" plywood. The specs are the exact scale 1:25. I used a "Bar Pour" to protect it. It is equal to 50 coats of varnish and gives a nice high gloss finish (see lights). It also makes it so you can't feel the lip of the center logo I glued on. It's perfect for one of my favorite games. Beer Pong. Quote
UMDDogz Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 That would make a killer airhockey table!! Nice job! Quote
jk Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 That is the best table ever. Really fabulous. It looks like you put a ton of work into it. (You must not be married.) Quote
cfm567b27 Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 Damn that is sweet. I'm actually considering tracking down something similar to put on my epoxy garage floor. Quote
dagies Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 Sweet table. What a great surface for ping pong. Quote
siouxtatoo42 Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 that is a sweet table. you made that yourself?? have you seen the glass table similar to that at the ralph made from hockey sticks?? did you do the same with the legs for yours?? far more impressive doing it yourself than buying one. good work buddy Quote
The Sicatoka Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 "Bar pour" is a great way to finish something like that assuming you mix it correctly. (If you don't you have a mess; it never dries and is sticky/tacky forever.) Looks like you mixed that one pretty well to get a finish that looks that good. Then again, every "bar pour" is better when properly mixed. Quote
01grad Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 You should market those and drop out of college. It looks magnificent! I would buy one to use for a card table perhaps on a smaller scale. Quote

I would buy one to use for a card table perhaps on a smaller scale. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I wouldn't advocate dropping out of school and go into full time production of these tables, but it looks like they would be a pretty sweet way to pick up a little extra pocket change on the side there.

kfah1 Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 Very nice! How much time did you have to invest in making it? Quote

NorthDakotaHockey Posted January 22, 2005 Posted January 22, 2005 It's top shelf, top drawer, over-the-top all the way Cratter. Never mind that one side of the Farm Bureau / Altru logos are facing the wrong way. Or maybe it is I who is mistaken? I think that they face the crowd on each side of the ice. Quote

Still living in the days of the all white boards. Great, great table. Put in on e-Bay, and you will reap a fortune. Quote
forecheck Posted January 22, 2005 Posted January 22, 2005 The table looks great! I did a Sioux tile mosaic this summer while I was in Denver. My brother-in-law drew the design out for me. http://groups.msn.com/_Secure/0SQDrAtwWjV8...506893231571559 Quote
forecheck Posted January 23, 2005 Posted January 23, 2005 Forecheck, the link doesn't work for me. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hmm, it worked when I previewed it. I don't know how else to post the picture. I'm kind of dumb when it comes to this kind of stuff. Quote

forecheck Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 Courties of PCM, here is a link that should work. Mosaic Quote
bigmrg74 Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 Courties of PCM, here is a link that should work. Mosaic <{POST_SNAPBACK}> OOhhhh..... very spiffy looking!! Quote
BigGreyAnt41 Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 You made sure to trim the sides of the sheet of plywood, right? Because if you didn't, and left it 4'x8', that would make it an olympic size rink. Quote
