DIY

I finished the sound recorder build for now, might return to it in another week. Got a midcentury desk, a park bench, and two old bar stools I'm restoring to give away. I need to fabricate replacement curved boards for the back of the bench, and I don't have any oak in the right dimensions, so this week's project will probably be the desk. I just need to get the top on it, predrill all the holes, and get in touch with the people who'll be taking it. For the bench, I need to get in touch with some relatives, pick through their wood piles. For the barstools, I need to sand the rest of the finish off and figure out what I'm going to replace the seats (currently torn orange vinyl and the cheapest plywood I've ever seen) with. Maybe big slices of tree, or just some carved seats.
