Mickey, You're an inspiration, much as I hate that word. <GRIN> being a bit of a sailor, I knew what a spar is so that's why I bought the stuff.
i also thought I'd dip the ends of the dowels in the can when done cause it'd be hard to be sure the end grain was wel sealed. Have you ever worked with spirit varnish as in used on some musical instruments? that dries very fast indeed. Have done french polish and that's fun if you're quick. do you worry about disposing of the used paper towels? I suppose there isn't a large enough mess of them to worry about self combustion. thanks, may try that next weekend, when will have some time, if the weather doesn't get too cool that is. tom Net-Tamer V 1.13 Beta - Registered To listen to the show archives go to link http://acbradio.org/handyman.html or ftp://ftp.acbradio.org/acbradio-archives/handyman/ The Pod Cast address for the Blind Handy Man Show is. http://www.acbradio.org/news/xml/podcast.php?pgm=saturday The Pod Cast address for the Cooking In The Dark Show is. http://www.gcast.com/u/cookingindark/main.xml Visit The New Blind Handy Man Files Page To Review Contributions From Various List Members At The Following Address: http://www.jaws-users.com/handyman/ Visit the new archives page at the following address http://www.mail-archive.com/blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com/ For a complete list of email commands pertaining to the Blind Handy Man list just send a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo!
