The rocking chairs were first owned by my father-in-laws neighbor. Then my father-in-law, now my wife. They are hand made from pine. I stopped counting the layers of old paint at 6. They were stripped with a store brand stripper and then sanded from 60 grit to 220. I put back two coats of paint and three coats of sealant. I am hoping my father-in-law would be proud. (He passed before I got to this project).
Cheers.
