Well here is the start of my gamesday board thread...Yes I am starting two major projects. the table will obviously be the larger and more important project as it is coming up in July. Due to this I promptly ran out to Home Depot to purchase materials to build my full table for Gamesday. This table is gonna be a beast and will have the ability for multiple tops thus meaning modular terrain and electricity access for multiple boards. Anyways now for the pictures...some of these pictures may disturb you due to the childish yet adult humor in them...if you dont get the jokes than you are a sad person and should probably seek professional help. It is ok your daddy did love you, its not your fault. The wood after being cut to precise measurements! Me showing the wood a good time...before i never call it again. Recognize BIZZNATCH! Anyways so yeah I am drilling tons of holes in the wood right now for tons of carriage bolts so once that is completed and I get the base built more pictures will follow. Enjoy.

I wish I had plenty of space...and a garage...to build a games table whenever I felt like.

Also this thing is solid...Little to no wobble and sturdy as hell can hold lots of weight. I was impressed.

You guys work fast, it's really coming together quickly. Plus I like how Kevin is all bad-ass about not wearing a mask. I bet he even told you to get bent when you offered him one.

I believe the "Deaf Child" sign above Josh shows his response to it...

No Kevin wore one most of the day. That shiza really irritates your throat if you dont wear one. I learned that from last year.

Nice. I guess you are a bit further than I thought when I mapquested/googlemapped lombard to frankfort last night. 45 minutes I think it said. So i guess it doesn't matter which club I play at lol.
