   Adrienne: Wow, Mary, that's a great dining room table. Where did you get it?


  Mary: Oh, thanks. That is something, a project that Dave and I worked on over a couple of weekends. We really enjoy doing woodworking and he actually has a very elaborate 1 woodshop at his house and it's something I really enjoy working on too, so we thought of a project, which was the table and kind of designed what it would look like and bought some lumber 2 and used his tools to figure out exactly how to put it all together and the process was a lot of fun, um, making the plan and actually using four or five different kinds of tools to assemble 3 it and get it all put together. I have to say that I wasn't quite sure what it was going to end up looking like cause in the rough form it wasn't impressing me too much but once everything was sanded and stained 4 and done it really impressed me so it's a lot of fun to do.
  Adrienne: So you made the table from scratch?
  Mary: Yep, Yep we did. Just bought some lumber, certain sizes of lumber and ended up cutting it to the different kind of things we needed so it was like making a pattern and then using all these raw materials to put together to create the final product.
  Adrienne: Wow, that's really impressive 5 cause it's a nice table.
  Mary: I really like it. It was a lot of fun to do.
  Adrienne: Um, any other projects you've done that you have in the house?
  Mary: Um, well, not quite like the table, but just some general finishing things, for instance 6 if something is broken, like I'm not sure if you noticed, but my front door has no doorknob at the moment so I do have a doorknob and I will be fixing that at some point, soAdrienne: That falls, I'm sorry, does that fall into the category of woodworking?
  Mary: It can cause it's gonna involve some tools.
  Adrienne: I see. Very cool. Thanks.
