Constructing the First Table, Part 1

Today, rubber hit the road on the first table, or at least the top of the first table. We kicked off at 8:00 AM with a shopping trip to Lowes to pick up supplies (totaling a whopping $170, which we had the forethought to split between about 13 people). Then, everything was loaded into Matt's truck, driven at a brisk 20 mph to his house, unloaded, measured, sawed, and moved to the basement to be assembled.

Then the assembly. Twelve hours, three trips to Home Depot, and a trip to Wal-Mart later, the table top had been assembled, wood filler'ed, routed, sanded, sanded, sanded, then sanded some more, vacuumed, and stained and wiped. Pics or it didn't happen, right?
