    The Restor-A-Finish arrived, and it worked very well. It did not work miracles on all the parts of the rocker with the most wear, but it completely disguised a fair amount of damage I thought it...

    Thanks for the tip. I suspect this one is from 1982 because it has a 4-digit stamp ending in "82" on the bottom of the seat. Apart from the seat and arm wear, it looks like it could have been made...

    The chair already has Pledge on it, so I am applying it to the runners before Restor-A-Finish to see if I can get them to work together.

    Good information about the silicone, but I am specifically looking for a way to avoid refinishing the chair. I just want to make it look a little better. I'm going to try Restor-A-Finish and see what...

    I slapped some Pledge on it just to get a start, and I am surprised how different it looks. I didn't think grocery store furniture spray could make wear less noticeable, but it does. I may just leave...

    How to Spruce up Worn Rocker?

    Title should refer to "worn" rocker.

    My wife and I picked up an oak rocker for $65. I figured we could not go wrong. Seems to be put together the old-fashioned way.

    The finish is like new on...

    My undergraduate experience was okay. When I got to grad school, I felt sorry for a lot of the people around me. There was virtually no socializing. There were no friendships that I noticed.

    When...

    Channellock makes great thin-jaw adjustable wrenches.

    You are representing my position in a very inaccurate way. You seem to think guards are all I'm talking about, when in fact failing to use guards is just an example I used. There are plenty of other...

    He said they learned it half a century ago. That is not possible. You can't learn today's safety methods half a century ago.

    Criticizing what I say is more appropriate than criticizing me. If what...

    Some genius marketed an angle grinder disk with chainsaw chisels around the rim. If you want to see something disturbing, look up a video about it made by a guy who calls himself Stumpy Nubs. Mr....

    Apparently, they did not. If they had, they would do things the right way. And everyone knows safety is something you have to keep up with. A person who thinks he learned it all 60 years ago is the...

    There are plenty of people like the ones I described. If you want, I can dig up their comments and post them here.

    As for people who went 60 years without bothering to learn about safety, what...

    I've never seen anyone say, "I did everything right and still had a table saw accident." I guess it must be possible, but generally it's the arrogant or lazy guys who think guards, push sticks, and...

    Thanks for the suggestion.

    Oddly, that guy doesn't put his address on his website.
  17. Source for Hardwood Near Marion County, Florida?

    I am finishing a welded frame for a kitchen cart. I am going to need three shelves about 3' long and 18" deep. I am not excited about paying Home Depot prices for hardwood. Can anyone here recommend...

    That amazes me. One of the first differential equations I was shown was used to predict the growth of a culture of bacteria. I'll bet if I start Googling, I'll find all sorts of uses for differential...

    Given the shocking stupidity of the average American student of 2022, and given the clearly superior performance of past generations, I dismiss anyone who thinks it's smart to be against the...

    I stuck the key rack on the wall with Velcro, and I made sure the Velcro was stapled to the board. It will be there when the house is torn down.

    Nice to know where the keys are.

    I should add that there are now a lot of fancy products for fastening stuff to walls. I started Googling in desperation, and I found out. Velcro is involved in some of them. It looks like using nails...

    I gave Velcro a shot and found out it doesn't like Danish oil.

    How does a person make those little cavities in the photo on post 3? If I grabbed a router and tried to freehand those, I would probably destroy the project and end up in the emergency room. Does...

    For what it's worth, I compared Frank's to Crystal side by side, and Crystal is better. I bought a quart for $4.

    Won't help you much if you like the really hot stuff.
