Old buffet dresser thingy I converted into a bathroom vanity. Soda blasted, repaired and refinished. Down to picking hardware for it. This bathroom was as bad a building car parts
Not at all valuable, but when my grandma passed, my uncle was going through her house and throwing piles of things in the garbage. You can’t save everything I guess. One of the things nobody wanted was my dads and uncle’s childhood chair. It was too cool to just toss. I also snagged their high chair. They were born in the 1920’s, so it at least that old. A few of the joints were coming a little loose, so I cleaned them up and am just trying glue for now. The chairs sit in our house, so they do get used by my wife’s babysitting kids, and my grandkids.
Beanscoot , there are 4 of the these round top barns on the farm . One has factory built rafters . The other 3 were built from a jig that my Grandfather built using one of the rafters for a pattern. He also built a jig to build a taller barn . It was barrowed by some neighbors to build a couple barns and never came back . I found it in a grown up weed patch and bought it back home . I thought about using it to build a barn but haven’t got around to it .
