http://lumberjocks.com/GaryCN/blog Tue, 24 Nov 2009 05:14:10 GMT http://lumberjocks.com/GaryCN/blog/12026 I’m thinking about making some Nutcrackers from a viewer project on http://thewoodwhisperer.com/nut-cracker-viewer-project-of-the-week/ for stocking stuffers, Marc does not have a drawing. Any Google SketchUP experts out there that would like to try making a plan to post?

It was amazing to see the process, they have kilns that hold 600,000 bd ft of lumber. They currently are drying 22,000,000 bd ft per year.

I’m somewhat proud that I acquired it at a garage sale for about $25 ten years ago and it is still working. I made the stand,
that has a chip collection basket in the center door.
I did purchase it without any motor. I’m guessing that it was made in the early 1960’s. The nameplate
does say Sears Roebuck and Co. Simpson-Sears LTD.

I just hate the finishing process.

Now I’ve been working on the finish foreaver and I’m still not happy
photo 2

Maybe I’m just picky but this is driving me crazy the stain is not uniform.
I just hate anything to do with finishing when my results are not what I would like.
The color is OK with me, But how many coats of stain should I have to apply. I’m on about 6 now.
