***** 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"

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.!
|
* 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!

Primitive circa 1810 corner chair from Virginia!
I personally did the "Aged" Splint bottom in this primitive Va. circa 1810 corner chair I found in a antique mall several years ago! It"s a real "Keeper" and has been passed on to the next expert chair caning
generation!

* DAY 19 AFTER * DAY 19 AFTER "OPEN HEART SURGERY"!!!
* Since having "Open Heart Surgery" I have had more than my share of "Ho Hum" days' so I'm really, really looking forward to the top of 2011
when I can start driving again, & I will be taking a completely different view of the world around me the
second time around, & that's for sure!!!
* & I will do little or no Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving, & just stick my head in the
door at "Country Seat Weavers'" every once in a while to make absolutely sure everything is running
smoothly!!! * Lunch was nothing to brag about, & in fact neither was my
breakfast: but they are about to take a "Huge" change for the better "Thanks" to my "THANKSGIVING"
mended heart!!! * "BLESSINGS", "THANKS" for stopping by, &
reading our "CHAIR CANING, & SEAT WEAVING REFLECTIONS'" TM!!!

* DAY 18 AFTER "OPEN HEART SURGERY"!!! * DAY 18 AFTER "OPEN HEART SURGERY"!!! * This surgery has really made me stop, & make a "HUGE" mental note to not take everything for granted which I really did before this life changing event!!!
I will be not just be "Thankful": but be "More Thankful" for my everyday "Blessings'"!!!
* ON FRY DAY (SUN, CLOUDS, LINGERING SNOW) DECEMBER 17, 2010 @ 10:33 AM EST
* Breakfast, & Meds taken, & another day to be extremely "Thankful"
for as I begin this Fry day AM!!! * I will fill in the events as the day unfolds!!! * When I have a hand cane job to quote that requires that the back, &
bottom be done at the same time for stain matching reasons I quote it that way, & let the Client make the
decision as to whether they want it done or not!!! And there are no exceptions to the rule
either!!! If they still want only part of it done we put pencil to paper, & write up a work order stating
what they want done, & at that time I state when the back is done (or bottom) at a later date
I cannot guarantee stain matching due to the change of dye vat numbers'!!!

* Our weather check of peeking out the window this morning revealed the beauty of our second (2) snow
of the season which was only a dusting: but never the less awe inspiring to behold!!!
* With Breakfast finished, & Meds taken shortly it will be time to finish working with my student to
complete their first "Rush" Chair Bottom, & it's going to turn out to be a "Museum Quality "Rush" Chair Bottom because the Client demands it!!! * And I've
already learned that it's really not as easy to teach like an "Air Guitar", & be as effective as
I should be; but with more patience than usual we will get er done!!!

will decrease with each passing day!!! Hey, I'm thinking positive anyway!!!
* ON
WINDS DAY (SUNNY + COLD WIND) DECEMBER 15, 2010 @ 8:31 AM EST
* With my traditional Oatmeal Breakfast over, & all meds taken I'm going to be a sitting in a chair teacher
for a day, or however long it takes, & teach a student "How to" do a "Rush" Bottom Chair!!! Should be an interesting experience because I've never had to teach this way before; but
circumstances due to "Open Heart Surgery" make this absolutely necessary!!!
* My student is doing excellent on his first try at doing a "Rush" bottom chair!!!
* I'm showing him which way to twist the screwdriver like play- ing "Air Guitar" because I really
can't even twist the screwdrive to straighten out the"Rush' due to the "Open Heart Surgery"!!! * And this is done on both the top, & bottom of the "Rush"
Bottom Chair at the same time!!! * "BLESSINGS", "THANKS" for
dropping by, & reading our "CHAIR CANING, & SEAT WEAVING REFLECTIONS'" TM!!!

* ON DAY 15 AFTER * ON DAY 15 AFTER "OPEN HEART SURGERY"!!!
* You simply cannot imagine the horrific pain you have after this
surgery unless you have actually experienced it yourself!!! This past Monday I spent
12 hours in an ER trying to make sense of all of this, & to get some answers; but absolutely no
luck; but lost everything as far as I am concerned, emotions, time, & money: but never the less a lesson
learned not to ever do it again!!!
* ON TWO'S DAY ( VERY "THANKFUL" TO SEE THE
SON SHINE) DECEMBER 14, 2010 @ 8:26 AM EST
* Each time it snows',
or rains' "Mother Nature" reminds me to "Feed te Wood" before I Hand Cane a Chair Bottom.
or do a "Rush" Bottom, or "Splint" Bottom Chair!!! After all they have been
covered up for who knows how long since they received their last feeding!!! It's just a personal preference
(AND NO YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DO IT) I have been doing for the past 36 years!!!

CANING, SEAT WEAVING, ETC."!!! * PATIENCE WILL BE "THE ONLY
SUCCESSFUL KEY" TO RETURNING TO THIS NOT SO UNFORGOTTREN WORLD, WITH OUT HOPEFULLY, ABSOLUTELY
NO SET BACKS, OR SURPRISE!!! * ON MUN DAY, (SNOW SURPRISE) DECEMBER
13, 2010 @ 9:54 PM EST
* THINKING ABOUT THOSE POST ABOUT WHICH
"SHELLAC" to use on "FIBRE RUSH", & "MUTHER NATURE RUSH" made
me "DOUBLE GLAD" I was not involved IN GIVING OUT "THIS ADVISE"
ON ANY "FORUM"!!! * "I use very simply 2" cardboard samples
with "FIBRE RUSH", & "MUTHER NATURE RUSH" wrapped around them stained wth
both "CLEAR SHELLAC", & (AMBER) "ORANGE SHELLAC" so the "CLIENT" can
see what the final finish will be so we are both on the same page with absolutely "NO SURPRISES"
when they do pick up their finished "RESTORATION" from "COUNTRY SEAT
WEAVERS"!!! * 'IMPORTANT NOTE": I do not personally use "AMBER" or "ORANGE" SHELLAC beause you have no option to "DARKEN" this product
if the "CLIENT" wants it "DARKER" because it was done when you applied it!!! And
the absolute only way you can reverse it unfortunately is to redo the "DAMN" "RUSH"
BOTTOM CHAIR to get a "MUSEUM QUALITY RESTORATION"!!!

you "WHY" I do the "WARP" from side to side when I weave a "Binder Cane",
