wouldwurker Posted July 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 After the first coat of finish the lack of edge banding on the 45° brace was bothering me. Another great reason to save your offcuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TerryMcK Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 Don't go sewing a French cleat into the back of their clothes and hanging the kids up Vin! The project is looking excellent as ever so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The project is looking excellent as ever so far. Not a bad idea.. I feel like I should change the title of the post now that I'm not French cleating it any longer!

..Kev Posted July 5, 2015 Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 Nice touch! I hate looking back at some of my projects and wishing I had done something differently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wouldwurker Posted July 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 What is it about that 3rd coat of ARS...when the finish stops absorbing into the wood and just glides right on the surface....and the whole thing comes to life... Switched to the semi-gloss. Love me some ARS, baby. Also, I just noticed the adorable happy face on my bench. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wouldwurker Posted July 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 And a second coat on top. Certainly not an issue on this one to do the top and sides/bottoms on separate days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
