David's Chair

  After puttering around in the shop and drinking many cups of coffee we've actually nearly finished.  The knelling chair is finally at the finishing stage.  David took it home to sand and varnish.


  The last part of this project was making three long bolts and putting it all together. Once the chair is sanded and varnished we'll glue it together and take it for a test ride.

  I am working on the long section of the chair rail ( hand sanding)  a slow job spent hunched over the work bench.  Last evening I cut up the pallet wood for a small storage box. Next is surface prep, I am thinking of trying one of those burned wood techniques. 
  
  Time to carry on putting the garden to bed. Yesterday the summer bicycles were hung up in the garage, out of reach for the season.   It is time for rainy cold weather activities, painting, wood work, coffee drinking.

cheers, ianw
