Tung oil...More like Fun oil!!!

I have to apologize for that title, couldn't come up with anything to rhyme with tung. Except for mung, or fung-us, which really didn't apply. Just a quick note to say Tung oil. I love it. I mean, polyurethane has its place in the world, but when I want I clean hand-rubbed finish, I put my Tung on it. Ok, that didn't sound right, ya'll know what I mean. You just can't beat that durable shine. Feel free to leave me a note on your favorite finish.

Oh..here's some examples of that oh so smooth tungness! Seeing these pics doesn't do it justice, feel free to rub your screen and pretend.

One man's trash is another man's...um...tacky office chair.

So...I don't have much of a post today, just wanted to show off my new seating apparatus. Has one of your chairs at work ever been broken by one of your, well, larger than normal co-workers? No names. Don't toss it out, repair it!! And no this is not a Mighty-Mend-It ad where Billy Mays will tell you that if you buy enough of this product you could actually make a whole new chair. With a little careful template work you too can fix that oh so comfy chair that was almost thrown out by HR Puff n Stuff.

Materials: 2 pieces of 3/4" plywood

I won't bore you guys with the details. All you really need to know is double up that ply with a little glue, cut it, sand it, shape it, rout it. And bada-bing!! A treasure that you can be proud of, and one your wife will probably make you leave out in the workshop. Enjoy!!
