That bumper sure took a beating. Desk is sturdier than it looks..

I played it slow, the bumper didn't take a beating, it gave one...it didn't budge...the table absorbed all the forces, and was punted...leaving wood behind.

That makes sense, as the work table probably weighed ~ 150 lb, and the deer I've smashed the crap out of with the bumper weighed about that, give or take 100 lb or so, and hitting them at 50 mph didn't hurt the bumper either.

A deer is softer than a wood table of course, but the mass is similar.
