to recap: belgian loafers are chic. los angeles is the most livable city. i would put a copy of my own book in a time capsule. lampshades are key. and check out my tan.

resist the temptation to rent a random orbital floor sander - not powerful enough. go with a big burly belt sander and you wont regret it.

1/2 iron pipe is about $1 a foot (maybe 40 ft for a 4ft by 8ft table = $40)
T connectors are about $2 each ($2 x 12 = $24)
flanges are about $6 each ($6 x 4 = $24)
1/2" plywood is about $20 per 4ft by 8ft sheet ($20)
total = $108

or you can get something for free off craigslist...

the most id pay in pittsburgh would be 700 for a 1br in northside flats, bloomfield, lawrenceville, regent square or friendship. probably cant touch squirrel hill, shadyside or southside flats for that. the least i would pay would be buy a house for $20k in a not-there-yet neighborhood...
