The 6 white ladder back chairs are done except for the final clear coat. The table and bench are done except also a final clear coat. I still need to finish the drawer for the table. I can not find a knob that I need for it. Will order one tomorrow. Hope they get it to me quick. I also need to order more polyurethane finish and stripper. The local stuff is to expensive and really bad.

A lady stopped by this morning and looked at my things. She wants a 7 or 8 foot x 30" tressel table made. She has the legs for it. She will let me know latter.

I need to start looking up bed parts for the pencil post bed that I am to build.

I still need to Susan's drop front desk refinished.

Wood shop is still busy. 6 chairs to paint and distress, 54" in bench to build, another bench to put the last coat of finish on. And one dining room table to finish the construction of and then the distressed finish.

After that a pencil post bed to design and build and do in a red distressed finish to match a sugar table she bought a year ago or so.

Then a drop front desk to refinish.

Then try out the wood finish like they describe in the last 2 pages in the last Fine Woodworking Magazine. That should be fun.

UP date Working on finishing 36" x 7' bookcase. I need to make it 1" shorter. Got an order for kitchen table, bench and use a matching finish on 2 of the decorators ladder back chairs. I have the top all glued up from before I stopped making furniture on spec. The market has been bad of resale items. Now that school is back things seem to be picking up some. The election is not helping also -- the war to.

I need to get some questions answered about a dresser to be refinish for my daughter. It has a factory paint job over veneered plywood. The plywood lifted when I try to take the factory finish off down to wood.
