Don wanted to extend the outdoor patio at the saloon in time for spring and summer visitors. That part is now done, but then we needed more tables and chairs so that people have lots of places in which to sit. It was decided that we need to make five more tables and eight chairs per table. For the last few days we have been making all of the pieces for the tables and chairs. This translates into making about 1000 various pieces, routing edges, and sanding the results. As you might infer, we have been working on this project for several days now.
Today we finished making pieces and started in by putting together the tables. By lunch time we had three of the tables together and not much more time is needed to finish the remaining two. Then we start in on making 40 chairs. We do not expect to complete this part of the project today but to make significant inroads. Tuesday is not one of my work days, but I volunteered to come in and help so that we could get this part underway. It has been fun particularly since this is rough work not finished wood work. I am much better at the rough wood working projects. It has been fun and a nice change of pace to do this project. Happy travels.
