Hello guys, I finally had some time to post up what I put together for Elkidmino's wedding gift. I don't own a quest though I think they are sweet and wouldn't mind one day thanks to Dave...any who about the table. I got some parts from members here on the boards and snooped around on facebook to get the parts I wanted. I'd like to thank Mark Wade for donating the "saltwater turbo", Dred_85.5_Tsi for the head/cam/valve cover and the guy who sold me a cracked manifold for just shipping who's name I can't recall. I enlisted the help of another friend of ours to sand blast the cast iron parts prior to painting.... anyway I'll post he pics in order of progress. Feel free to ask any questions.

Thanks guys, this was my first furniture build. I've got an itch to finish my own personal table since finishing this, just haven't had time. There might be some quest bar stools down the line, as Dave mentioned he would like to make some eventually. Edited by pushrods

Saw this on facebook a week or so ago, very nice work.

 

I've been wanting to do an end table with a wheel as the top and glass cut to fit inside the outer most lip. I'll get there one day.

 

That sounds like an awesome idea for the table's glass

Man, I was so floored when Jeff presented this to me after the wedding. I really appreciate everyone who donated/sold him parts. This forum and the guys on it are some of the best people in the world. Thank you!! I smile everytime I walk by it in the house.
