Oh, man... *another* project that's taken me forever to finish!!! Free time comes with a premium around here.
But lately I've been in my shop more and getting this done has proven to be an "enabling" project in order for
me to get on with other things... like my office drafting stool. This and an old table that I'm refinishing
have "been in the way" of progress... so they have to be completed! Stat. I know somebody who has patiently
(extremely patiently) been waiting for this too. Saintly patient. :)

This was photographed after the very first flood coat of oil. It will receive many more applications
and rubbings over the next week or so. And then we'll tape one of Virby's whiskers on and ship it. :)
