LOML thinks you're supposed to clean house before guests come over. Sheesh. That woman.) :rolleyes:

One of the Sunday guests is going to give me some pointers about my planes, and I don't want him to think I keep dull tools. :D

So you not only have to clean before company comes, you have to sharpen, before getting sharpening tips?:huh::rofl::rofl:

Shop time, while watching Franks storm tear up the area. You have to stop this Frank. Every time you get one, we get one.

Sorry, wish I could stop it.
Snow came down hard most of last night. We have well over a foot on the ground. Most unusual for here. Daughter and her dogs are visiting. Staying in house is boring, boring, boring. I'm sure I could drive out, we didn't get ice with this storm. But, what would we do? Daughter has a 150 mile drive home on Ozark roads tomorrow. That could be problematic.

Thanks! I did post a new thread under shop tours. And I also attached a photo of the table so far. I still need to rout the table top before attaching it. I think I'm going to stain the table to match the stool.

Table has been put together but now LOML doesn't want me to stain it dark to match the existing stool. She wants to keep it light to fit in with the rest of the room. I wanted to ask what others thought about finishing options. I've attached pictures from various angles. The table is pine.

I'd be inclined to go dark, since the countertops are dark, and some of the wood is, too, but if that's not what SHE wants, then you pretty much don't have a choice, do you? :D:D
