Painting and carving.

Carved up 4 seats tonight. We have not had any sales for the last couple of days, but I'm hoping that changes... Cheryl finished putting a second coat on the patio furniture tonight, so we should be able to sit outside and enjoy the night air tomorrow. Now all that is left is for Cheryl to sew up some cushions to go with them and the project will be complete. As for me. I will probably get a new log to start carving tomorrow. Hopefully it won't be as tough as the last one. I still have some left over lumber for some sawhorses. I'll also have to sharpen up my chisels before I can get started on a new carving outright. And Now BAccino! Have a look see at Uber Anime. You may have to watch it twice to figure out what is going on because it jumps back and forth through time. Enjoy!

What a wonderful customer! Happy Anniversary Cheryl and Eth!

First of all, today was our anniversary, ( July 20th, 13 years!) And to kick it off, a dissatisfied customer sent back his seat. And to make it all really wonderful....It was totally destroyed in shipping because they just threw it back in the box and sent it. Nice! Then! He sent a snarly comment that we did not inform him of our return policy ...are you ready? Get this. ON THE VERY EMAIL PRINT OUT MY WIFE SENT HIM WITH THE POLICY ON IT! Well, we were not going to let that ruin our day, so we just want that sale behind us. The rest of the day we spent as usual, but decided to finish off and paint the outdoor furniture. So far it's looking pretty good. It was unfortunate that we could not sit in them and enjoy the cool night air while they were drying. Second coat comes tomorrow! Will take daylight pictures then. Have a good one!

More outdoor furniture!

So I decided ( with a little help from Cheryl) that I would complete the assembly of the patio furniture today. It did not take as long as I had first estimated. And I'm rather happy with the results The last item, the love seat, was quite large for My small workshop. It was quite a challenge to work with it until we got it outside. Next step will be to sand and paint them all. Cheryl; will fully be in charge of painting.

Outdoor Chair project

So Cheryl commissioned me to build a chair for the deck tonight. It was inspired from one of her magazines for a contemporary look. It was fairly easy to build with simple 2x4's and some 1x6's. It was originally meant to have cushions on it but believe it or not, it is quite comfortable without them. I still have to sand it down and fill any dowel holes, but Cheryl just could not wait to get it out on the porch. I'm hoping the second one will go a little faster and with fewer hiccups. All in all, it was a fun little project! Cheryl And the cat were very happy! Our latest Anime! Full Metal Panic Fomoffu! Enjoy the ending theme!
