* "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.!
|
* 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 47 AFTER * ON DAY 47 AFTER "OPEN HEART SURGERY"!!!
* I'm positive everyone is getting sick, & tired of reading about
Day Number this, & Day Number that; but if you've ever had "Open Heart Surgery", & ( I really
truly hope not) you would be double "Thankful" for each, & every day there after!!!
* What really amazes me is I still have "Chest Pain" after all of this time in regards to
the "Healing" issue!!! Will really be double glad when the healing process is completed, &
I have "Pain Free" Days!!! And they cannot arrive soon enough!!!
* ON SAT UR
DAY (EARLY AM MADNESS AGAIN) JANUARY 15, 2011 @ 2:15 AM EST
*
Life without Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving has been very stress less for which I am very "Thankful, &
look forward to more days the same!!! * But come the 1st of February
it will get very, very hectic because I will have to begin the task of doing all of the work I
could not do due to the surprise "Open Heart Surgery"!!! And
I really did not have the "Foggest Idea" that I was simply just days away from dying from "Heart
Disease" according to the ER Doc.!!! This would be a
"Wake Up" call to anyone, including me, to really drastically "Change" their lifestyle
to have "Better Health"!!! And that's what I've done which includes "Exercise",
& a much more "Healthy Diet"!!! * 9:05, &
just finishing my usual Breakfast of Oatmeal Fuel with Fruit, & having takien the dreaded Meds I will
start my day with not a lot on my plate; but TV, & plain ole R & R until Monday morning, NO
Chair Caning, or Seat Weaving!!! * Will of course read the BLOG that I
really enjoy reading, "COLD ANTLER FARM"!!! It's # 1 on the BLOG hit parade as far as I'm concerned!!! * I really thought the Chair Holding Fixture developed
by one of the Forum members' was really neat; but after contacting the creator I learned the
labor, & materials will run around $3500.00 to build yourself one so that would really make me "Think"
twice before I would invest labor, & time in building one, & just simply continue to
use my old set ups which I have been using for years', & years' which has served me very well "Thank
You"!!! " "BLESSINGS", "THANKS" for stopping by, &

* DAY 46 AFTER * DAY 46 AFTER "OPEN HEART SURGERY"!!! * Still sixteen (16) days' shy
of being able to go back to work again; but I do not know at doing exactly what at this point but
I probably will return to "School" at some point in the very near future, & take a "Sand
Casting Course", & do something with that knowledge when I finish "School"!!! This
is another one of those Crafts like Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving where not very many Craftsman do it so it
gives you a lot of options as to what direction you want to go in be it "Antiques", "Vintage
Automobile Parts'", Jewelry" etc.!!!
* ON FRY DAY (THANKFUL FOR THE SUNSHINE) JANUARY 14, 2011 @ 9:21 EST
* This has been a typical morning with my usual Breakfast of Oatmeal Fuel easten, & my Meds' taken to relexing for a few moments to deceide which direction
my day will take!!! * And this will include going back to bed this morning
to catch an additional forty (40) winks or so, & then get up, & really start my day over again!!! * And another day where absolutely NO Chair Caning, or Seat Weaving
will be done, & this is helping me to get this out of my system after my doing it for thirty six (36) years!!! * "BLESSINGS", "THANKS" for stopping by, & reading our
"CHAIR CANING, & SEAT WEAVING REFLECTIONS'" TM!!!

* DAY 45 AFTER * ON DAY 45 AFTER "OPEN HEART SURGERY"!!! * On Day 44, Wednesday January 12, 2011
after "Open Heart Surgery" I drove my '42 Chevy Truck for the first (1st) time
since November 24, 2010 with mixed feelings' as to what the out come would be!!! Drove much further
than I should have, & longer than I should which left me extremely sore, so I am going to,
yes, take a breather for a few extra days until the next time!!! Then the trips will
be shorter with shorter trip times until I feel up to taking longer trips' with longer trip times'!!!
*ON THURSDAY (THE SUN HAS SET) JANUARY 13, 2011 @ 7:07 PM EST
* On Wednesday I delivered the last "Rush" Bottom Chair from a set of four (4) to the "Sponsor"
of the "Antiques Road Show" for "Central Virginia" which was a huge change for me because I introduced the work of the "New" Craftsman for the "Country Seat
Weavers" Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving business operation!!! And I'll be introducing
the work of the "New" Craftsman" to the remainder of my Corporate Clients'!!!
And the reaction has been welcomed with open arms because of the caliber of the work, "Museum
Quality"!!! Yes, I'm done, finished, gone, or how ever you want to
put it' but the business lives on with a more than able, & "NEW" "Craftsman"
taking the helm at "Country Seat Weavers"!!! * We also picked up
a couple of "Rush" Bottom Chairs from another "NEW" Client in Richmond,
Virginia!!! * Tomorrow we will order some "Rush", "Binder Cane"
etc. so that we can whittle down the pile of chairs' to do in our shop!!!

* DAY 41 AFTER * ON DAY 41 AFTER "OPEN HEART SURGERY"!!!
* Today I'll take the battery out of the house, & put it back
into the '42 Chevy, & see if I can't crank er up, then tomorrow on my six (6) week anniversary after
having "Open Hear Surgery" I will, with fingers' crossed, take that first (1st) test drive around the block to see if its a go at driving again, or will the waiting game begin all over again!!!
* ON SON DAY (EARLEY IN THE MORNING DARKNESS) JANUARY 9, 2011 @ 1:04 AM EST
* I have a "Rocking Chair Stool" I made from a "Wicker Rocker" which had seen its better days
as a "Wicker Rocker", & use it when I "Hand Cane Chairs'", & its a project I
will finish while I am mending from "Open Heart Surgery"!!! Will post a "Foto" of it
so you can see what it looks like!!! Anyway I am going to stencil a "Chair Caning
Cross Word Puzzle" on it, & will take a "Foto" of that also when it is finished!!! * It eliminates the "Standing Business" when you are "Hand
Caning" a Chair Bottom, & it allows you to sit at a comfortable height for "Hand
Caning" a "Hand Cane Chair"!!! * Today I will put aside anything
remotely having to do with "Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving", & watch a Football Game which I very rarely do but I am a little bit curious about what the Eagles are going to do so I'll watch,
& see!!! * With the usual fare of "Oatmeal" for Breakfast with
fruits, & Meds now taken I will sit down in my type of "Morris" chair, &
do a little "Spiritual" reading before I return to bed, & get forty (40) more
winks before I get up again to really start my day!!! * George Nakashima
? Did an internet search for verbal, & images, & got a "One Minute" overview
of His life, & works', "Chairs'", "Furniture", etc.!!! Anybody
can do this!!! Ha!!! Ha!!! Ha!!! And then make a presentation
on any internet "Forum"!!! * "BLESSINGS", "THANKS"
