Didn't I tell you to stop worrying and just do it?

Now, THAT'S a project you should be proud of!

looks great-- the finish appears perfect too

That just looks like a good "sit right here and take off the shoes" stool

Nice job

Beauty work! Love the figure in the legs and it looks solid as a rock. Should give you years of service. 8) 8)
