So, Matt made this amazing table last semester at school. It's hard to appreciate its full glory in these pictures - the sturdy metal legs, the locking wheels, the nice, smooth welds, and the circular and rectangular slots for tools - but you can get a fair idea of what it's like. It's really a drafting table, but for the first six months or so of the baby's life, it's going to masquerade as a changing table. We're going to plop a changing pad on top, a diaper pail underneath, and keep other necessary supplies nearby. If Matt has time before the little lady arrives, he'll build a drawer attachment underneath the table to hold extra stuff. The table will live by a nice, big window in our bedroom/office/nursery, and as you can see, the built-in tilty feature of the table top will allow us to effortlessly slide the baby into her co-sleeper once she's back in a fresh new pair of fuzzi bunz.

What an amazing table! Matt, your great grandfather would have been so happy with your talent! The design is classic and how clever to be able to use it as a chute for the baby. We send our hugs to you. Gift on the way... Love, Mom and Chris
Chris says: I think the table is really wonderful! Shows excellent welding skills, and some pretty good engineering wisdom. Pictures did reveal quite alot, nice detent in the height adjustment arm. Something you can be proud of, Matt. Love, Chris
ps Obviously it will be impervious to uric acid.
