I think I do remember you guys actually. It was the comment about Nicole's nametag that brought the memory back, lol. I am flattered by your comments. I truly appreciate it. Good luck to you as you get deeper into the craft. And hopefully I'll see ya around. By the way, if you are in the Atlanta area this coming weekend, I will be at the Roswell Woodcraft Dec. 5th and 6th. Stop by if you can. Thanks again buddy! Hey Tony!

I am kind of new to this type of woodworking, furniture making I have a small company located in Southeast Michigan. What we do is manufacture and install custom closets and commercial cabinets, countertops. I have a lot of equipment for that type of work, but not many for fine woodworking. Slowly obtaining tools. I have learned to not tcomprimise and purchase inferier tools. I'd rather save for the good ones like Powermatic. I just completed viewing the series of videos on the arts and crafts table. It was great. Would love to have that domino.... I have learned so much from you, and i just wanted to thank you and Nichole for all of your hard work. You probably do not remember me, but I met you at the Atlanta 08 show. I remember pulling my wife over to meet you. Saying this is the guy who whispers to wood. It was a real big deal to me, and so cool to meet you.. You and Nichole were walking down an aisle and I recognized you even though you had Nichole's name tag on. You told me that you wear it so no one will recognize you. It didn't work, Ha, Ha,.. My wife, who was with me really got a kick out of that. Anyway, I click onto your site daily, and look forward to many more of your great sense of humor, projects, instructions, and all of the other information you share. The very best to you and Nichole. Thank you again. Tony Mark,

I usually stain one side at a time. There is no easy way to stain both sides of a table top of that size. Hi Gui. I usually stain one side at a time.

Do you first stain one side, let it dry, then the other side? Or is there a technique to do top/bottom at the same time? Not sure where I would leave the table top resting without damaging the finish.... Question from a novice woodworker – how do you stain the table top?

The table was hit with the Minwax cherry stain first, followed by a coat of pre-catalyzed sealer (Sherwin Williams). Then a light 320 grit sanding. THen about 4 coats of Sherwin Williams Precatalyzed Lacquer. Sure Ron. The table was hit with the Minwax cherry stain first, followed by a coat of pre-catalyzed sealer (Sherwin Williams).

Thats a little child's sitting bench (or foot stool) that I made as a prototype. The construction is primarily mortise and tenon but I dont really have much info on the details. It was a quick one-off type thing. I can email you as much detail as I remember, but I dont really have any pics or anything showing the process. Marc Hey Scott.

Have you posted that elsewhere, or is there any info you'd like to share on its construction? (here or over at Lumberjocks?) It's a nice looking piece (one I'd like to try, and with all the veneered pieces leading up to it, it's one I feel comfortable trying! Thanks!

Designing, milling, finishing, construction. It is all there. Excellent. I did notice something of interest - you had a blanket under the piece as you did the glue up / assembly process. I figure this is to protect both the piece and the workbench surface. What a great idea! I had never seen this before, but it makes complete sense and makes me say "Ah, I should have done that years ago." And I liked the south western theme of the blanket - great sense of place in your shop. Winona, MN Wood Whisperer,
