Talking Play Time

Hi All, just thought I'd post a few pix. Here's a bench I built today. I like these, they go together in a hurry and they look real good, especially with a back on'em. The little tables are cool to. I get a kick out of making them too.







How ya'll like them Glow Sticks of mine. They keep me from getting run over when I walk at night.

Nice job on the bench and table, Randy! They look great.
I agree with Dennis, don't get too comfortable on that bench!

Re: Play Time

Nice bench! I didn't know they still delivered bottles of milk here in NC. Oh wait, those aren't milk bottles, they're glow sticks....

So, how are you going to finish those fine pieces of furniture? Polynaturestains?

Re: Play Time

I like the bench and stool, especially the way you did the back on the bench. I think it adds a lot of character.

Nice! I like the back of the bench. Of course, it would be a little easier to see the stuff in the dark if you had included the glowsticks

You're killin' me, Randy. Your rustic pieces look better than my high-gloss projects.
