Paint-grade work
4 Attachment(s)
Not exactly fine woodworking, but IMO any smattering of pine, oak ash and
cherry deserves a posting. I've been remodeling my bedroom with a complete tear out the walls and windows approach. I was able to rescued the pine floor from beneath layers of carpet and brown paint (yes they painted the floor) The moldings are pine, custom milled locally, to match the rest of the house. The window seat is not my design. I rebuilt it almost exactly as it was before. A mishmash of leftover wood from my stash was used: maple(stiles), oak (seat), Cherry (bullnose) and recycled plywood (panels). The door is ash with cherry panels. The cherry is crap-grade that I got on the cheap so I do not feel at all bad about intending to paint it. This shot is just a dry-fit I still have to fill a couple of spots and pre-paint the panels. Sorry Swing, just a single tenon. Originally I was going to make it 1-3/8 thick with 1/2" panels, but after milling the main stiles and witnessing their heft, I decided that 1-1/4" with 3/8" panels would be adequate. It's an undersized door (28"x80") and it still weighs about 80 lbs. Thanks for looking, -Steve ** Posted from http://www.teranews.com ** |

Are you putting brown paint back on it or changing the color? |

Very nice, how old is the house?
