April 19: Almost Finished

Our landlords were showing the apartment today so I tagged along with Kevin and went to the barn this evening.  I got a good visit in with Connie and Bob, read a little, talked to Terre and played ball with Bailey.  I also snapped some pictures of Kevin's nearly completed projects.  The professional versions of these items will be taken after everything is finished.  We have had 2 sessions with Amanda and now know just about enough concerning the new camera to make us "dangerous",  but we will keep practicing.

This Comb Back Windsor rocker needs a great
deal of sanding and the tenons from the legs
need to be trimmed off.  Then the whole chair
will then have a few coats of shellac.
This candlestick table went to the finish room
tonight.  It has one coat of shellac on the
whole piece.  The woods used for the table
match the woods in the rocker - cherry and
ash.

This wall cabinet is finished and will house Kevin's planes,
spoke shaves, scrappers and chisels.  The box is maple with
cherry tool holders.

The front of the cabinet has book matched figured maple
veneers. The doors are held closed with earth magnets.
