I got an order for four of the camp chairs that I have been making for over twenty years. I could not find my home make set up blocks, so I tried to make some new ones. It took me five hours to get the first chair square!I have no idea what happened to my old set up blocks and why it took me five tries to get new ones to work! Plus the boards I thought were white oak ended up being walnut when we got the dust off of them and planned. So they are getting walnut chairs instead of oak! The walnut is strong enough and takes weathering well.

it happens.
I made a walnut coffee table used a oil finish on it . It came out nice. I had enough walnut left to make 2 end tables to match, I forgot I used oil ad finished it with Shellac. Cant tell the difference to much. But still brain farts happen
