Ah, what memories this idea brings up . . . .
Once upon a time, long long ago a similar thought struck us at the weekly poker game. "The table is a bit too high for our chairs and not to be rude it is a tiny bit wobbly."
"So it is!" one of our handymen observed. "I have just the thing in my truck, a saws-all" He promptly dashes out to his truck, brings in the power tool and in a flash has shaved a half inch off the table.
But now the table is somewhat more wobbly. "Not a problem!", says the handyman, "I'll clean that right up" And he shaves another slice off the legs.
The table isn't so wobbly now, but it is clearly tilted. "Not a problem!" says the handyman. . . . .
By the time we call an end to the cutting, the table will rest on the legs of the biggest guys. It is wobbly and tilted. Let's just say, "It IS a problem now!"
I forgot to note that the table wasn't exactly ours. And we felt an obligation to fix it. So we took a quarter from every $20+ pot for over a year to pay for the repairs to the table - playing on bed risers until we had enough money to fix it up.
Just saying, be careful before you start cutting. Measure twice, cut once -=- DrStrange
