Moving off a far distant, furthermost back burner, and toward a back
burner closer to the front, is a personal bar stool project:

Although buying project wood is usually a sure sign that a project will
be started in earnest, and finished (I have never not finished a project
started), there is only enough wood in the photo to make the legs for
two, of four anticipated, bar stools (on this visit there was not enough
_suitable_ white oak, in stock at this particular hardwood lumber
supplier, to purchase any more than what you see here).

With some species of domestic lumber becoming harder to find, and their
high prices these days, it is damned nigh impossible to compete with
"factory made" tables and chairs ... AAMOF, it is highly probable that
one would save money by going to Stickley, or The Amish Craftsman, and
just buying the damned things ... that is if some of us weren't so stubborn.

What the hell, you only live once ...
