OK, I sanded my arms off today and this is the result. Not finished, but wiped down with MS. The pivot pin set-up worked like a charm, so far I don't believe that I have screwed anything up on this project...but I haven't got to the finish yet, so there is still time. These babies are baby butt smooth, I took them to 400 grit. I plan to finish with Danish Oil (natural) and several coats of rubbed out gloss lacquer, with a final coat or two of satin. I will take any suggestions that have been found to work better, provided they are cheap and easy:lol: Thanks for looking and ya'lls advice on this project. Stay tune next week for a final finish.
