What is the skull looking emblem? I thought I knew Star Wars
Johnnygamealot
Mandalorians, the symbol mainly used for Boba Fett
surprisemotherfuckers
i'm not familiar with the insignia in #11, can someone explain
zatgal
That would be the Gray Jedi insignia. starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Gray_Jedi someone also posted a nice info sheet about them a few months back.
surprisemotherfuckers
That explains it thanks
DeskCat
That's no moon!
Talahar
Yeah sorry, wasn't interested after the second picture wasn't the finished table.
thart400
Looks heavy! Will this fit in your vehicle?
Johnnygamealot
Open bed truck is how i had to transport it. It's heavy as fuck. I added way more wood than i really needed. Lessons have been learned.

Johnnygamealot
built for X wing, or for board games and drinking in general
FartHands
Where will you put your legs?
Johnnygamealot
It's meant for standing, but has about 7 inches of space between knocking the shit out of your shins and the edge of the table
doitthehemingway
That game is great.
BilbroMcSwaggins
Ah yes this is the table over which they discuss the new death star, which is bigger than the old one, making is completely different!
AlexanderDoesntDeserveElizabethSchuylerMaybeHeDoesIdk1781
Cool I'm going to try this *swipes right*
iWillUnleashTheEntirePayload
Is my name relevant?
Johnnygamealot
yes, cause it now resides in my office!
BurtMacklinYouSOB
Show the final product first you slut. I had to scroll all the way down to see it.
Johnnygamealot
been getting a lot of this. It's actually my first post and my first table build.
pingu88
What about the trade federation and the senate?
Johnnygamealot
We do not mention such things. Nothing happened between the Old Republic and the Galactic Civil War. WE WERE ON VACATION!
pingu88
Haha damn I didn't mention the most important character.... You know who i'm talking about ;)

Johnnygamealot
Well, that is kind of it. This was my first table, lots of mistakes, lots of lessons learned. Center was filled with a 2 part epoxy resin
tatualysse
I want this. O_O
Anlysia
You must be a big X-Wing player, OP. ;) I go for Armada myself.
Johnnygamealot
Yes, i'm obsessed. Mistakes have been made.
andel
That is beautiful
Johnnygamealot
Thanks!
Tatelina
How did you do the cut outs?! +1 for awesomeness. -1 for no instructions or descriptions.
Johnnygamealot
It was my first post and did it from my phone. Still figuring it all out. Laid down the blue tape, printed out symbols, cut with xacto knife
Tatelina
Looks great!
priestfoxley
hey, @op ...is this for x-wing?
Johnnygamealot
yup!
therealmccoy
xwing playmat in there
therealmccoy
X-Wing is my shit
FormerlyLNIFun
How much to make another? Serious question @op
millerha
Judging by the low end materials used, prolly less than $100.
Johnnygamealot
Yeah, just about. A bit over that in fuck ups though. Roughly 2 bucks a board and 20 for the 4x4 foot center board
Spleadal
lol I do all my projects with a few newcastles and you can tell because as you go up my screws become less and less symmetrical.
millerha
Not knocking you. You did good work with what you had. Clearer stock that is S4S makes a huuuge difference in the outcome of the work.
Johnnygamealot
I do random projects for fun and a stress relief, not sure I would sell them as it took a while. This was my first attempt.
superdudeman64
What stain did you use?
millerha
He used Danish Oil. But when working with a softwood like pine, like OP used, you should use conditioner to avoid unevenness.
Johnnygamealot
100% agree. I did not do this and really, REALLY should have.
superdudeman64
I'm learning so much today.
AHorticulturistIsJustANerdyGardener
That's how it begins. I... I used to have a regular username.
ITalkAboutGoats
what kind of grow stuff, and what kind of animals, also where are you located?
AHorticulturistIsJustANerdyGardener
③ aquatics. Current animals are 3 dogs and 3 rats, had 2 ferrets until recently (adopted them out to a couple of long-time ferret lovers),
AHorticulturistIsJustANerdyGardener
8) And if so, what and where?
AHorticulturistIsJustANerdyGardener
② illicit for a decade or so. This fall we'll be getting an aquaponics setup up and running, and maybe next year I'll work with some
AHorticulturistIsJustANerdyGardener
⑤ crabs, stray cats I'm allergic to, and probably some others I'm forgetting. WISCONSIN, BABY! -- I'm also addicted to Lilies and am just
AHorticulturistIsJustANerdyGardener
7) Well, that was a long-winded "Hey, check ME out" series of replies. Ty for letting me toot my own horn. -- You a grower too?
ITalkAboutGoats
Just started getting into homesteading. We have 14 chickens, 2 goats, currently 6 rabbits, and I'm slowly building over our property 1
ITalkAboutGoats
I just can't see it being energy efficient, we're doing this to save money in the long run.
ITalkAboutGoats
with screen houses so that we can plant without raccoons eating everything. It's an adventure. I thought about hydroponics, but 2
AHorticulturistIsJustANerdyGardener
6) this year starting bonsai - so it's weird to me there's been so much bonsai stuff on imgur lately b/c I just started a few months ago.
AHorticulturistIsJustANerdyGardener
④ will be getting 4 chickens in a few weeks, and historically, horses, rats, gerbils, mice, newts, guinea pigs, parakeets, finches, hermit
AHorticulturistIsJustANerdyGardener
① All manner of plants but I'm especially proud/dedicated to my mosses, Wisteria, and Veilchenblau (Violet-Blue Ramblers (roses)). Nothing
zergzapper
Finished product first motherfucker
Johnnygamealot
Noted.
sirbroderic
Finished product first!
Johnnygamealot
Gotcha.
EwokDude
Came here to say this. Great craftsmanship is great, but you'll catch more views in your Imgur web with finished product first.
PlatonicPajamas
This would be awesome for xwing
Johnnygamealot
that is why i dunnit!
PlatonicPajamas
I awesome! Lets play lol
Johnnygamealot
Live in Minnesota?
PlatonicPajamas
No.. cali..
ShitSteve0Says
It bothers me the space between the insignias and the stripes are not equal on each side.
ReddogBigdaddy
a cool craps table...neat!
Wolverinebrandedcircumcisions
May the crits be with you, always.
Johnnygamealot
I certainly hope so!
Thecolourblue
Very cool. How much?
Johnnygamealot
If I were to sell it, I would probably do 6 to 8 hundred. My free time is a rare and pricey thing these days.
teufelhundenz
Your lack of benches disturbs me.
SpecimenSpiff
Hoooo-perrrr, hoooo-perrrr
Aimanfire
You must mean "I find your lack of benches disturbing."
Johnnygamealot
Next time I will try. This was my first attempt at a table.
elguapo1022
Do or do not. There is no try.
Tynexx
You don’t need benches, you need pews.
teufelhundenz
This is still awesome. Good work op
Kopar
Might be a stupid question but how did you get the stain to not bleed very much?
Johnnygamealot
I used wood oil instead of typical stain. More control. You can also go with a staining gel for less bleed
raptar
Any varnish? I was kinda hoping for a darker finish but more people like light wood than I do.
Johnnygamealot
I just coated it with poly, not even that many coats. All i see is flaws and want to do another in the near future for my house.
Johnnygamealot
This table is for work. I might even sell it to my local game store eventually.
raptar
Ahh, nice. For a minute I thought you had burned the designs but the stencil didn't make sense for that.
Kopar
Quick reply and perfectly informative. Thank you! Great job.
SlightlyRelatedToThePost
Trade out that Mandalorian Enclave symbol for a Sith Order symbol to match the Jedi one, and I'd be sold.
Johnnygamealot
I built it for X Wing Miniatures game, so the odd symbol out is the lightsaber, but yeah, I see your point
SlightlyRelatedToThePost
Ah, that's cool. Wasn't sure if it was meant for a specific goal or just for fun.
Highfarm
Cool, I was about to comment that while it looks cool it would have been a waste if it hadn't been used for X-wing, but why is it so deep ?
Johnnygamealot
it's only a 4 inch drop. Was 6, but THAT was deep. Not sure why i did that, but I like the lower battlefield.
SlightlyRelatedToThePost
Say, Since I had your attention- how did you cut the painter's tape for the symbols? Tape down then razor? Looks very clean.
Johnnygamealot
x-acto knife. Lay down the tape, tape a picture to the tape, cut forever, remove parts, stain away.
