Tommy, Thanks for doing this. I’m learning a lot, and it will make my home much better when I start applying these techniques to things I make around here. Happy New Year!

Nicely done Tommy, Al and Mark. Looks like a fun time in the shop. There were some nice tidbits about the finishing process there. However I didn’t catch the dry times that Mark gave.
