***** 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"

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!

* IT'S "RUSH" CHAIR SEATS' 4 THE WEEK END 2!!! * ON SAT UR DAY MAY 21, (SUN SHINE with CLOUDS)
2011 @ 10:31 AM EST.!!!
* An "Alarm Clock" is something
that I do not own; but it's going to be put on a "Must Purchase" list so that I can put a
grinding halt to my "See Saw" "Wake Up" schedule every day where an Oatmeal
Fuel Breakfast, & most important "MEDS" are concerned!!! This must change regardless
of whether I'm "Retired" or not!!! * "PREP WORK' is the key to a
winning "Show Truck", & the same goes for "Museum Quality" "Rush" Chair
Bottoms'!!! When they are "LAYED OUT", & "SQUARED UP" "CORRECTLY" you
get a "Museum Quality" "Rush" Chair Bottom every single time with absolutely
no exceptions!!! That's WHY we get work in Virginia from everywhere!!! The winning "FORMULA"
is two (2) inches from the front "Rail", & then three quarters (3/4) of an inch until
you run out of "Stiles" on both sides!!! It's all about being uniform!!!
* It's 10:05 & I'm laying out a "Hitchcock" "Rush" Chair Bottom which will be
done either tomorrow, or MUN DAY depending on "How Many" Shaker "Shawl" Back Chairs'
I complete tomorrow!!! * And after this it's really time to call it a day!!!

@ 8:46 AM EST.!!!
* Well, I up & at 'em undressed sitting here at this
computer hunting, & pecking with a day of "Rushing" Chair Bottoms' on the horizon after
an Oatmeal Breakfast, Meds, not to forget a "Bird- bath, & of course getting dressed for the day!!! * Doesn't sound very exciting, does it? Well, that's the very
way I have felt about "Caning, & Weaving" for a long time so after I finish two (2) final Chairs
for a "Special" Client which are a "Rush" Chair Bottom, a "repair, & Restoration
"Project I will let go lett- ing the "New" Craftsman do "ALL" of the "Projects"
here at dear old "Country Seat Weavers'"!!! * And I will get
that "Piano" "Machine Cane" Bench Top shipped off to "Northern Virginia"
today!!! Promise!!! GONE!!! And it is not only "Cheaper" to "Ship" it
to "Northern Virginia"; but saves money, & time for everyone involved!!!

* SURPRISES' IN CHAIRS' AFTER TEAR DOWNS'!!! * ON THURS DAY MAY 19, (ANOTHER MIDNIGHT EXPERIENCE) 2011 @ 12:38 AM EST.!!!
* Before you start "Caning, &
Rushing" Chair Bottoms' you really need to take a basic course in "Woodworking" for the many surprises you will encounter when you do Chair tear downs be it "Cane", "Rush", or what have
you!!! This knowledge will enable you to do most of the "Woodworking" repairs yourself!!! * For examples' "Yellow Glue" problems' with "Hand Cane"
Chairs, "Broken Stiles" with "Hitchcock" "Rush" Chair Bottoms' require
two (2) completely different "Woodworking" Skills' to repair, & restore which occured within
a matter of days'!!! * Get the picture WHY it's not a good idea; but a great
idea to take a basic "Woodworking" course!!! It's a "Favor" you will
be glad you did for yourself!!! * After one (1) again so it's off to
bed I go because I do think a good nights' sleep (if I can get one) will help me have a great day
tomorrow so until... * 8:23 AM EST. translates into I got up a little earlier than usual today so with Oatmeal Fuel Breakfast over I'll have to wait a little while to take my Meds,
after taking a Birdbath, & gett- ing dressed for the day which will be another day of "Weaving" "Rush" Chair Bottoms which will carry over into next week before the set of six (6) "Shaker" "Shawl"
back Chairs are delivered!!! And I'll throw in a little "Teaching" (Sharing) to change, &
shake my day up a little!!!

begin "Weaving", then alternate on both "Rush" Chair Bottoms' until they are finished!!!
Then on to the next pair of "Chairs"!!! * It's late, & pushing
one (1) o'clock in the morning so it's time to sign off on this "Post" & finish it around...8:59
AM EST. this morning after an Oatmeal Breaks, Meds, & getting ready to greet another day!!! * Ordered "Quality" Material this afternoon from my "NEW"
Vendor here on the East coast for a "Binder Cane" Porch Rocker, & some
"Hand Cane" for three (3) "Hand Cane" Chairs'!!! *
Picked up a single "Rush" Chair Bottom to do today, & have two (2) more to pick up
which are on a waiting list because my shop has absolutely no space left to take in another chair of any
kind!!! And I have two (2) others to pick up in Ashland, Virginia when I make deliveries
there the first of the week; but I won't know what they are until I see them which doesn't make any
difference be- cause of the description they gave us we can easily do them!!!

* "RUSH" CHAIR BOTTOMS STILL RULE!!! * ON SON
DAY MAY 15, (SUN SHINE + ?) 2011 @ 8:32 AM EST.!!!
* With
an early start on the day I've actually completed an early "Oatmeal Fuel Breakfast (Double Portion),
taken Meds, & have yet to take a "Birdbath", & get dressed; but this morning will be one of R & R, & then this afternoon I'll start on doing eleven (11) "Rush" Chair Bottoms'!!! * Ugh some say about "Weaving" more than twenty pounds of "Rush"
material; but if you are using the "Rush Ruler" TM Method for "Squaring Up" "Rush"
Chair Bottoms' it actually is a far easier "Project" than you "Think" it is!!! * Above in the "FOTO" is one of the "Rush" Chair Bottoms' I'll be doing which is a "Hand Made" Shaker "Shawl Bach" Chair from Charlottesville,
Virginia, & it's "Museum Quality" Crafts- manship!!!
* Continued working on the transformation of the '42 Chevy truck into a '40's box truck!!! It's going to
be a challenge, & will also be a really "FUN" project to do through complection!!!
