Project post was getting a bit long-winded...so 1st coat of varnish was applied today.. Was about the only spot in the house I had enough (barely) room and light.. Mainly out of Curly Maple, there is a bit of Cherry between the desk and the stand... Yes, I even varnished under the lid...need a better spot for the final pictures Not the best spot for a photo shoot? Been rubbing the coat out, getting ready for #2 coat tomorrow...we'll see how this turns out...

Legs look fat, top might be a bit thin..Boss is thinking "Night Stand" Still needs a finish.....have to go and BUY a can of something....this is a side view... Lonely looking thing. This is an end view Thinking MAYBE a darker colour for the legs? Kind of blend things together? Still need to get a box organized, as it is getting a bit full.. You might look through there, and see what kind of tools this will hold.....That smaller box with yellow handles sticking up, holds a set of chisels.....I need to find out what is stashed back there in the steel tool box....

Back was feeling great this morning, went down to the Dungeon Shop for a few HOURS! Got things all put together, too. Drum Roll, If you please... Had an "issue" with the bottom shelf. Too wide, and too short. Solution was to notch the shelf to fit around the legs, and add caps onto the ends Screws into the end of the shelf, through slotted holes. Added the hole on top to attach the shelf to the table. IF you want, I can "blog" about all the fun stuff I did today? Debating on a router bit to do the edges, or leave with just a slight sanded round-over? Need to go out and BUY some sort of finish stuff, too. Maybe later I can do a little more writting about this little table...

Well, got all I can do in the shop with this Project of Pine Boards. So....how about a PIP? Sitting in the middle of the kitchen floor. Awaiting some hinges to install the door. Looking at the backside of the cabinet, and a drawer. Knobs match those on the doors in the kitchen And an end view. Have a quart of white primer ( KILZ) and a decent paint brush. Wife was sent out to pick up a set of hinges. IF the weather dries out later this week ( T-Storms right now) I can get a coat or two done. She wants a clear coat on the top. Depending on the price of the hinges, this little Island costs less than $30. Works for me...
