    If anyone cares to see it, here is the table that goes with the set of chairs.

    Just finished sanding and oiling it today. Next week I can spray lacquer on the chairs and table and it gets delivered early May.

    The table is on 4 legs, but pedastal style (the base with 4 legs stay stationary, while the table expands/extends over the two ends. Size is 46" wide by 52" long with 2 leaves of 18" each.

    Now this is the kind of stuff you will see them appraising on Antiques Road Show 2113 and explain the quality builder and his reputation, ect. make sure you brand your furniture so your great, great, great grandson can identify it to others!

    The oil makes the wood look so much more rich!

    Can you spell....h-e-i-r-l-o-o-m?
    I hope you have some way of branding or identifying your work and the date so that 100 years from now people can look under there and know who made that..
    beautiful...

    Yes Jack I have a burn in stamp now, that I use to mark my stuff. Has my company name and logo.

    Unfortunately, there are almost two decades of my furniture out their that I never bothered to even put my initials on...

    But that's OK. I know what I made

    After having seen your great work and craftsmanship and pictures of your shop there is still one thing left I wish to see. Have any applications for an Apprentices handy?

    Well, I am always looking for someone who loves woodworking and is good at it. I have a current full time employee, and my summer student (same university "kid" I had the past two summers) starts next week.

    Send me a resume'
