* "Online Chair Caning, & Seat Weavers' Directory" tm Shout Out!

  *****  VIDEO UPDATE!  
 
* Video for "Squaring Up" "Rush" Chair Bottoms' using the "Goff Method" was completed this afternoon!
  I was informed today February 13, 2012 that the editing for the Video has been conpleted, mailing
  (from Arkansas) was done within the last few days so shortly I will be able to "Post" it on "You Tube"
  at long last.   This will make life easier for every "Seat Weaver" whom does "Rush" Chair Bottoms' on
  the planet
GUARANTEED!
  

Five Things That "Seat Weavers'" Cannot Recover In Life:
(1) The Stone ....... After It Is Thrown!
(2) The Word ....... After It Is Said!
(3) The Occasion ....... After It Is Missed!
(4) The Time ....... After It Is Gone!
(5) A Person ....... After They Die!
So use integrity!  Less of a burden than regrit!

                                       Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving What If (For Me)
       Recently I read a very interesting paragraph about how, & where to strip off old chairs, & it will NEVER be in my shop 
  again due to inhaling dust, mildew, etc. from an old chair(s) because of where, & how they may have been stored! 
       It will be done outside of my shop with maximum ventilation, & before I bring the chair caning, or seat weaving re- 
  storation into my shop to restore!  
       Coming from an attic, an old barn, a basement, or an out building may cause health problems which I did not bargain for 
  when I took in this or that chair caning or seat weaving restoration to do!
       IMPORTANT NOTE:  Dust Mask, & Gloves will be used ALWAYS during the strip off of old chairs etc.!

test162.jpg

       * If you have discovered, & are daily using the Chair Caning Lock Step Method TM that's absolutely fantastic!
       I will be teaching the Chair Caning Lock Step Method TM without the references/substitions so that it will
  (hopefully) not be so confusing to my Online Class as I did with MY STUDENT ADULT EDUCATION CLASSES!!!  

  They got it, & use it every single day!

                                                    * Signing Your Seatweaving! Smile
       "When I took off the old seats, I found that a little girl had signed her name before the Rush was put on", he said. 
  "I asked the man if her name had any significance, & it turns out it was an old maid great-aunt of his." Smile (smile)
      
"Since then, I've started putting my name, & the date inside of my work!  Maybe 100 years from now, when some-
  body takes my seat off, they"ll feel a connection with me, too." Smile

* THE MOST BENEFICIAL SOCIAL MEDIA ARE ?
  ON SAT UR DAY (SUPERB WEEK-END WEATHER) SEPTEMBER 18,
  2010 @ 9:08 AM EST

       * IN MY OPINION I think "FORUMS" are the absolute most  
  beneficial to Website Owners because they "SHARE" with us
  what information "SPECIAL VISITORS" are searching for on the
  internet!!!
       And that is the primary reason I have tutorials with "PHOTO
  BUZZ" on my Website about Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving Issues'
  which deal with doing "CURVED" Hand Cane Chairs, "CENTERING"
  Machine Cane Chairs', & "SQUARING UP" "Rush Bottom Chair
  Seats' with more to come that is sole priority to the "Online
  Chair Caning, & Seat Weavers' Directory!!!
       * It is COPYWRITTEN!!!

       I'm putting the finishing touches on four (4) "Rush" Bottom 
  Chairs' from the 1880's for delivery today to the "SPONSOR"
  of the "ANTIQUES ROADSHOW" in Richmond, Virginia!!!
       Terrific way to end the week!!!

* RUSH BOTTOM CHAIRS ?

   ON THURS DAY (A QUARTER OF THE DAY IS GONE) SEPTEMBER
  16, 2010 @ 12:16 AM EST

       * READ AN INTERESTING "POST" about the lack of "POST-
  ING" on a "FACEBOOK" PAGE which tells me just who has time, 
  which includes me, to drop by or "POST" on every "SOCIAL MEDIA"
  page on the "INTERNET" unless it is absolutely "NECESSARY"!!!
       ***** This is "Why" I believe it is extremely "Important" to 
  have an "Internet Website" which is "Superior" to anyone else's
  "Website" where "Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving Information is 
  "World Class" so "Special Visitors" will return to your "Website" 
  over, & over again because "Precious Time" is not wasted!!!
       * Today I will attempt to complete four (4) "Rush" Bottom
  Chairs with #5 "Rush" Bottom Material I will "NEVER" use again!!!
       *I'm not going to get into this poor quality material, or
  what "VENDOR" I ordered it from; but it will not happen again
 "EVER", & that's a promise I have made to myself this lovely,
  sunny, beautiful morning in spite of the problems with the "RUSH"!!!
     ***** COLD ANTLER FARM BLOG has done it again with an 
  interestng Post on something you may enjoy learning to do to kick
  back, & "RELAX" after your Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving work is
  done for the day!!!  Me?  Yes, we are going to give it a shot!!!

  ON WINDS DAY (SUN NEE) SEPTEMBER 15, 2010 @ 12:37 PM

       Today has been a busy one for me so far because of errands
  which were a priorty where our rolling advertising billboard is con-
  cerned mixed in with the pick up of Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving
  work from around the turn of the Century again!!!
       It is a Walnut Rocker which will allow me to "Share" another
  Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving Tip because it has a "Curved" back
  to do using Splint which the Client requested!!! 
      And I've yet to pick up more work from the "SPONSOR" of the 
  "ANTIQUES ROADSHOW" here in Central Virginia!!!

  ON TWO'S DAY (WHAT IF DAY) SEPTEMBER 14, 2010 @ 7:53
  AM EST

       Will begin in earnest today doing the four (4) "RUSH" bottom
  chairs from the 1880's now that all of the "Dutchments" have been
  glued in place on the inside of the front "Stiles", & I will continue
  to Document the "CORRECT" Method for doing these types of 
  "Rush" Bottom Chairs as I weave these "Rush" Bottoms!!!  
       * IMPORTANT NOTE":  Each "Dutchment" must be filed,
  & fitted on the inside of the front "Stiles" on your First (1st)
  "Rush" filler!!! 
       Hopefully tomorrow I can Post some more Photos on the
  progress of these "Rush" Bottom Chairs'!!!

* POSTING TUTORIALS, &
  ON MUN DAY (IT'S MIDNIGHT) SEPTEMBER 13, 2010 @ 12:03
  AM EST

       * Got two of these 1890 "Rush" Bottom Chairs started this
  evening, & I'm taking "PHOTOS'" as I make, & install the 
  absolutely necessary glue block dutchments to the inside of the
  front stiles so that when I "SQUARE UP" the "Rush" Bottom 
  Chairs they will be easy to weave, & complete!!!
       * If you do not install "Dutchments" in these types of "Rush"
  Bottom Chairs you, believe me will be forever "Squaring Up", &
  weaving them to complection!!!  This is especially true when you 
  do reproduction Hitchcock "Rush" Bottom Chairs' which do not 
  have the complete full block in the front of the Hitchcock Chair!!!

* FACEBOOK FORUM TO COMMENCE!!!

  ON SON DAY (RAINED + MORE I HOPE) SEPT TIM BER 12TH,
  2010 @  7:56 AM EST

       * An extremely "FUNNY" thing happened in reference to my
  obtaining a FORUM NAME ON FACEBOOK for my innovative
  "Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving Forum Name!!!!  
       * Anything using "Chair Caning, or Seat Weaving" had been
  taken, & could not be used so I thought I would try using a trade-
  marked name, "THE SEAT WEAVERS GUILD" TM which I had
  copywritten, servicemarked, & trademarked, & add "FORUM" to it
  to see if it was available which it was!!! 
       * SOMEONE HAS BEEN UNKIND ENOUGH TO MAKE IT
  ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE FOR A COMPETITIVE CHAIR CANING,
  & SEAT WEAVING FORUM TO BEGIN ON "FACEBOOK"!!!
       * REMEMBER THERE IS MORE THAN ONE (1) TALK SHOW
  ON TV!!!  AND SOME ARE REALLY "WORLD CLASS" ABOVE
  OTHERS!!!  
       * So this is "HOW" "THE SEAT WEAVERS' GUILD FORUM"
  TM was obtained on FACEBOOK!!!
       * Within the next few days I WILL LAUNCH my innovative
  version of a "Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving Forum" with "PHOTO
  BUZZ" on "FACEBOOK" using my copywritten, servicemarked, &
  trademarked TRADE NAME "THE SEAT WEAVERS' GUILD" TM
  with "FORUM" added to the copywritten, servicemarked, & trade-
  marked trademark to complete the "FORUM" picture!!!
       * And I'm finally taking the "PHOTO BUZZ" "SHARE TO" for
  doing "RUSH BOTTOM CHAIRS" with irregular 'FRONT", & "BACK"
  "RAIL" configurations'which have never been published in any "Chair
  Caning, or Seat Weaving Publication offline or online!!!  These will
  be posted within the next few days!!!
