I found $17,000 worth of rare Australian long grain chestnut on the side of the road, around the back of a house, inside of a locked building, that was perfectly dry and already pre-planed.

That's how I was able to build this $65,000 table for $35.

They only hang up I had is that for some reason some guy fired a gun at me like 6 times while I was picking it up.
