      I guess when their lungs give out from exposure to dust and finishing materials they get discarded and no one counts how many toes, eyes, fingers they have and checks if they hear well or not.

    I bought this as a gift for my friend ruclips.net/user/postUgkxcZqgZ8Ynkiz5n_LxIWRlAicuzmz5kCHG who is just starting out in the world of wood work. He loves it!! There is a great section on different wood and what to use for what kind of job and a similar section for tools as well. The projects in it are things you probably would have a go at with clear instructions, pictures, videos and diagrams throughout. Great for a beginner/amateur wood worker.

    A beautiful table, but it is not made of old railway sleepers but of wood obtained from the dismantling of old wooden ships. The holes visible in the boards are left by the screws connecting the hull planks with the frames, there are also visible holes left by snails, known as shipworms, which are eating wood submerged in seawater. Kudos to the carpenters :-)

      Have you ever eaten organic vegetables?😂

      I’m surprised you did not complain about them using square pegs on the round holes. Kens and Karens are everywhere these days.

      Not quite sure what you're getting at, old boy. Is it a secret code? (If so, how exciting!)

      Yes! Yes I have! I have a railway line at the back of my house, and the veggies that grow between the rails are quite outstanding. The best thing is that they all taste of curry and garlic, which saves me a fortune. I always have a couple of brimming glasses every day of the pure water from the outlet of my sewage treatment plant too. Win win, eh! I just wish my girfriends would share my values.

      I personally thought the imagery from your first comment made it worth typing and I got a giggle, but since you have had some rude comments back from the experts I would like to make 2 points.
      1.They were not railway sleepers because sleepers are a standard size and length and defiantly are not edge bolted. I am going to guess that it was an old rail bridge or platform. Not that moving train toilets don't work on bridges, snicker.
      2. You don't have to worry about germs from that old timber because they used to soak the wood in a copper arsenic mix, which no germ, white ant or Borer could survive. So relax buddy, that stuff takes years to slowly build up in your liver and kill you.
      Like you I have been known to eat organic vegetables, but not the tomatoes that sprout up magically from around the septic tank when it has been overflowing. Its definitely not the same thing as Organic. @@garyjonah22
