Those are straight saw marks but am thinking the board older than the rest. The round head nails are later. Still think it could be early 20th...
Thanks. Sounds like a nice upscale market. I could only dream of such clientele here in the cornfields :sour: On the flip-side, this is a great...
Have not heard of it. Have heard of the roaming gnome and the red hat society. Maybe I should put a gnome on my chair with a red hat :cool:
Thanks! ..... spot on. Looks like they made some interesting things. Too bad this isn't one of them.

Thanks! Looks like that would be the way to go to release the pressure. I probably would not be able to put any wiring or lights through there....
So you would buy 5 chairs at approximately $100.00 (or more) and sell them at $125.00? I can't live on that kind of profit margin myself. Could...
These are generally willow but agree that those red barked uprights look like cherry. The cross-bars used front and back are pine. I imagine the...
