* "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

  "Business Logo", or "Monetary Gain", or whatever because it simply
  belongs to someone else!!!
       * And if it (WHICH IT DOES) belongs to me I am going to have
  the legal right to license it, or refrain from licensing it because that
  is my legal right to do what ever I choose to do with it!!!
       * Furthermore if someone is infringeing on my "TRADEMARK", &
  "BUSINESS LOGO" they need to get LEGAL PERMISSION TO USE
  IT, OR CEASE, & DESIST from using it, & PAY DAMAGES for the
  UNAUTHORIZED USE of my "TRADEMARK", & "BUSINESS LOGO"
  because it is "NOT THEIRS'" to use in the first place!!!

        * Having more than plenty of Chair Work of all kinds is really
  nice for a change!!!  Answering a question every once in a while as
  an advisor to the "NEW" Craftsman whom now does most of the
  "Caning, & Weaving" at "Country Seat Weavers" makes my job as a
  retiree the way it should be "EASY"!!!
       * Well, I've "Posted" my two (2) cents worth so I'm outta 
  here until...9:12 AM EST. & I will be off & running for the day now
  that the Oatmeal Fuel has been consumed, Meds to be taken, Bird-
  bath finished, & I'm yet to finish dressing; but at least I've gotten
  up earlier than yesterday so I will have a little more time to finish
  what's on my to do list today!!! 
      * Oh how glad I am to see the "Bottom of the week come
  because with it will mean I will not have to fool with, or see any
  "Cane or Woven" Chairs' until the "Top" of next week for me!!!
  Yes, after thirty seven (37) years' I frankly am all "Caned, &
  Woven" out!!!  And when you feel this way it's time to simply "Hang
  It Up" which I have done, & now only serve in an advisory capacity
  for the "NEW" Craftsman at "Country Seat Weavers'" whom still
  has a great deal to learn, & soak up in a very short period of time!!!
