    Very impressive dining suite Paddy.

    Great job on the chairs. I am sure they will always be a talking point.

    I like the way you added the heavy duty adjustable feet to the base of the table.
    Can your wife hold up the table while you adjust them?

    How have you attached the table to the base?

    Top weighs 65kg, worked out a system for turning it over on my own in the workshop, but took two of us to get it into the house and onto the frame.

    Have set four 1/2 "wit bolts into blocks , bonded to the underside. it will be clamped to the main centre rail only and will be free to expand and contract or bow across the width. At the moment it is just resting in place as i have not made up the clamps yet. Solid as a rock without clamps, but tricky to move!!

    With 50mm dia Jarrah feet, the adjusters work like jacks without much effort.
