Woo Hoo!!!!! They're finally done!
As many of you know I started working on Bunk Beds for the kids just after New Year's. For those of you who didn't know, most of the WIP updates are in this thread. Life/work got in the way for a while and seriously cut into my shop time but I'm happy to say they are finally done, delivered, and the customers are thrilled.
First, one last WIP picture. This is taken mid-finishing. As discussed in the other thread I opted to go with poly. This was Minwax oil based semi-gloss, thinned to 50%, then wiped on with a rag. As it was BORG SPF and kids furniture (will be heavily used/abused) I didn't want to go too crazy with a "pretty" finish. My goal was to seal it up so fingerprints/crayon/etc had a chance to be removed w/o too much effort...
And w/o further ado, here's final product:
And a short video clip.
Thanks for looking and thanks for all the support throughout the project.
