I've seen many projects done with 2x4's and all of them seem to come out so right and straight until.....
All I have built with Home depot 2x4s is a rack to accommodate my sheets of plywood. My opinion is that they are difficult to work with specially if days go by, since they start to warp as they dry. You can manage to grab straight ones and still have issues with them.
I am a cabinet maker who regularly works with man-made materials, plywood and premium solid wood.
This time I need to make a table for general work for an upholstery shop, and I was wondering if all the affordable 2x4s I see people making stuff with online and in you tube is all I can get?
The idea here is to avoid buying or making my own 2x4s or fatter pieces that would be called rather posts for the legs, with 1-1/2" plywood or even 3/4" laminations, or even having to machine poplar, for example, to make the structure of the table.
Table will be 92" x 60" by 32" tall with a shelve at the bottom.
