Rear Posts in Steamer

Out of curiosity, why did you just not leave them in?

I probably could have Gene. But there has to be a timed window of 1 hr per inch, starting when the box reaches 220 degrees. So to know when the correct cooking time was up, I put them in the box at the temp suggested and at the time suggested. Once I do a few more of these chairs and get a good grasp on the construction process, I'll let up on the"rules" and get lazy when I can and fudge where I can. But for now I'm going by the book for my first few chairs.

Aha...now I know. Thanks. In the future there's nothing wrong with bending the rules.....pun intended.
