A Quick Project All Natural

We once again found a great piece on-line.  A beautiful antique church pew!  Dave had to fix one of the sides and reinforce the seat, but once again he made it sturdy and wonderful.  Here is a before picture.

I once again had to pull out the power sander to sand down some of the darker spots.  I sanded the seat very well with the sander and then sanded the hard to reach spots with 80 grain sandpaper.








We then wiped the whole pew down with a cloth to get all the dust off.  We wanted to leave the beautiful wood as it was so my husband wiped the pew down with restoring oil we bought at Lowe's. He let the oil soak in for thirty minutes and wiped down the pew again with a clean cloth. Here is the end result.


 The pew sold.   If you are interested in a piece like it please email us at davewhit4@gmail.com.
