Default My gunrack (lots of pix) - 03-26-2006, 04:33 PM

Got a gunrack from my grandpa the other day. The wood was real rough, painted sky blue and had notches in it for fishing poles. Well since the wood was rough i needed to sand it down, strip the paint, stain it, remove the notches for the fishing poles and reassemble it. A good days project!

Here it is with most of its blue paint on, sanding it off took forever

took it apart to get real deep in the corners

Most paint is off, still have those notches i need to saw off

98% finished! stained it and added some felt strip to the wood so my rifles wont stick

Finished. If you look closely you can see i removed the notches in the front.

Sorry for my poor photography skills. I'm debating on whether or not i should restain the wood again.

nice man, it looks great, but like Milla said, I don't think another coat wouldn't hurt. The felt is a great idea.

Stacy: Well, don't you want to open your present?
Wayne Campbell: If it's a severed head I'm going to be very upset
Stacy: Open it.
Wayne Campbell: What is it?
Stacy: It's a gun rack.
Wayne Campbell: A gun rack... a gun rack. I don't even own *a* gun, let alone many guns that would necessitate an entire rack. What am I gonna do... with a gun rack?
Stacy: You don't like it? Fine. You know Wayne, if you're not careful, you're going to lose me.
Wayne Campbell: I lost you 2 months ago. We broke up. Are you mental? Get the net!
