Friday, Aug 22Nd, What's On Your Patriot Woodworker Agenda?
John Moody posted a topic in General Woodworking
The dog days of summer have certainly hit here in the South. It has been in the upper 90's every day with humidity of 70%. When you walk out side you are wearing the humidity. The air went out on my truck this week of all times and had to have it repaired. I was told there was a mixing gate behind the dash and they might have to pull the whole dash to change out the motor and if that was the case, it would be 800 to 900.00. Wow! But I got a call and they were able to change it out without pulling the dash and I got out for 250.00. Sure felt good going home yesterday when it was 98. So this week I finished the 100+ year old rocker and got it delivered to the owner on Wednesday night. It belonged to her Great Grandmother and had been passed down to her mother and now to her. The rockers were worn flat and one of them had cracked all the way through. So I made two new rockers out of white oak like the chair and rub it down with BLO, let it dry and then waxed it. The BLO was a nice match to the finish already on the chair. The back of the chair is the original backing but the bottom has been replaced. I also delivered another rocker that was made for a repair and got it delivered Wednesday night. I made a speaker cabinet last week and when he got it home the speaker didn't fit. He looked at the dimensions he gave me and they were inside, but he didn't tell me they were inside so I made them as the outside as I had done on the other two which were outside dimensions. So anyway, I rebuilt it for him and got it put together last night. It is sitting upside down, the opening will be on the bottom for the cables to pass through and connect to the sub woofer. And let me just say one more time that I really love the Bessey clamps. They are so nice and give such an even clamping. If you are ever looking to add clamps to your collections, I would recommend the Besseys. We are also finishing up another Green Egg table that will be delivered Saturday. So what are you Patriot Woodworkers doing in your shop this weekend? We here at TPW are always interested in what your are working on so please share your projects here with us. I'm waiting to see what you are doing.
