This is a frame for the last supper we are working on.. The wood is southern yellow pine. 

Neighbor just had a large deck built on to his house and after it had sat there about 30 days

everything started warping big time.. He made the builder replace all the crooked stuff with

more YELLOW PINE....and the carpenters painted it about three days after they finished building it!

  Capenters piled it up close to our house. Ah- ha, went and asked the home owner what will they do with 

the bad wood... we will burn it if you want get it before they come back, load it up.

 

I now have a large stack of yellow pine..

  This is the first use of some of the pile.....

 

It will turn a little darker but wife wants it dark walnut and some 2X on top of this will keep her happy.

   My spray booth is the top of the table saw using a lazy Susan so I can keep my spray going towards the exhaust.

Putting a finish on wood is just not that complicated if a person does it the right way.

 

I really think some wants to make it seem impossible and I do feel sorry for those that still get blotching and all them other bad comments..

Nice looking frame. Tight miters!!

I just now put a couple of coats of clear on the frame and when it is about 30 degrees outside you need to be a little careful.

I will add a few more coats after lunch.
