In Part 4, I show my tricks for sanding down turned legs. I also get a little frustrated with my wife. Later in this part, I go into detail on one of the most commonly-used tools in the shop, the random orbit sander. Enjoy! Marc

    To help the shop vac filter, ask your wife to give up a pair of panty hose. Cut off one leg, sretch it over the filter and tie a knot in the toe to make it fit the shape of the filter. I was supprised at the amount of fine dust it stopped before it could enter the filter.

    Marc — I have a wonderful old chair that I want to restore. The biggest challenge/problem that have with this project is that one of the arms has been broken/cracked onto two pieces. The break is pretty clean and the pieces fit together remarkably well. But the arm is definitely in two pieces. How did you repair your leg? What type of glue do you use for something like this? How do you fill the gaps crevices? Is this something that I can realistically expect to be able to accomplish?

Got something to say?
