Same ole thing in the cabinet shop. I got a break to help Sue put the patio chairs back together. Now that was a struggle. The material is stretched across from side to side. There are some bars that are to keep it spread but they are just a little wider than the material so it means you have to stretch things to get the bars in. YouTube said a car jack could be used. That would be nice if things didn't roll around. I finally got a stick cut to length and forced it between the sides. It worked but at the cost of removing a bit of the new paint. Some touch up will be needed. The finished product is well worth the work. The chairs look real sharp.
Sue order a couple of real neat books for me and they have come in. They are on the art of making your own windows and doors. They are used books since they are out of print and packed with useful info. I have had a real time of it trying to find stuff on making your own windows. Just another project…..more later..
