hey, I could not log in for a couple of months, maybe 6 or so weeks, my son put chrome on my computer so tonight I was able to log in...I thought one you threw me off of here. I must be getting senile, I couldnt remember if I cussed anyone out or posted something innapropiate?
havent been doing that much, went to nevada for a week, went upstate NY for a week, was down with bad back, a bad flu like cold......managed to get a few things done. had my friend over, taught him how to make a wine bottle stopper, not sure if I posted that picture here, made 6 cutting boards, 2 PT adirondack chairs, 4 wine bottle stoppers, 2 key chains, and the past 2 weeks, made a box for my daughters wedding coming up in may 2018, she asked me to make her something to collect cards, still needs to be sprayed with semi gloss lacquer, and elen asked me if I made the other leaf for my daughters dining room table(which will be here till she marries), and asked me to do it right away so we can use it tomorrow night with all our company, so I made it over the past 3 days, sanded to 120, no finish, put it in, shell put a table cloth over the table.
those osbourne table extenders are pretty cool and tough, no bowing in the middle. and thats where IM at, hoping everyone here is doing well and in good health.
(btw, thanx larry, tom and jim, I was on the fence about this extension dining table not sure if I could handle it, and I vaguely remember larry drawing something out on a piece of paper, and him and toma nd jim telling me its going to be something I can handle, so I did)
I still need to sand down the finish smooth again as the last coat of poly was contaminated, not going to do until my daughter is ready to take it.....it will be a big job, I want to take table apart and move into garage right before she takes it permanently. at least thats the plan. for now, its easier for me to have it set up and use, my table is taken apart and stored.
only pics I have right now, the table leaf needs to be finished ofcourse, the boards are all put away wating to be gifted out, and the box will be sprayed monday, as its going to be around 70 here, last day warm enough, my daughter picked out the top of the box, I gave her choices.its much more fun doing perfect mitres on every corner now that I built a jig and making it easier. she liked the little metal feet. during the party it will be dressed up with flowers and stuck in some corner. (its sapele and cherry, all I have left these days)
