The first item I refinished was an antique rocking chair which I tackled in May & June of 2019. That was my first taste of tearing down, repairing, sanding and refinishing an actual piece of furniture. It was hot, difficult but ultimately rewarding and educational. So much so I wouldn’t do an other item until 2021, ha! But seriously I swore a lot, and picked away at it, 30 minutes here, 45 minutes there, every so often over a two month period. Seems to be the way I work on my hobbies.
It was pre-covid times, and I didn’t document all the steps I undertook all that thoroughly. If I recall I used 80/120/220/320 & 400 grit sand paper to make the seat, arm rests and head rest as silky smooth as you can imagine. Felt amazing under my finger tips. Had a rich warm colour when finished. All in all a pleasant project to undertake.
