...11.21...Friday Update...

...the Man had started this little painting project before we left for Las Vegas...I had filled in all of the scratches made by Kitten when this chest was in Our Airman's room...notice that the bottom drawer runner is missing...not sure when or how that happened...one broken off side was still inside...but the chest hasn't been used since we moved...

...and look what we found stuck to the back side of one of the drawers...the Man was so tickled to see them...he said he remembered sticking them on the back of the drawer where no one could see them so that he wouldn't get into 'trouble'...he had gotten them from a cereal box...

...I found this image and a bunch of images of these stickers here...

...the Man's stickers must have been on the top left card of stickers...

...as you can see Paul with the fruit...

...and Ringo with the flower and the pinwheel...

...so FUN!...

...anywhooo...he took over the big room again...

...to get everything primed...

...the final coat will be black though...

...in the meantime...I set about recreating one of these runners...

...to replace the one that's missing here on the bottom...

...I used the tablesaw...the chop saw and a coping saw...

...to replicate the exact measurements that I'd taken of an existing one...

...popped it into place...and gave it a couple of quick brads with the nailer...then I sanded the top smooth and rounded the edges just a bit...and finally rubbed a bar of soap on top so it would glide smoothly and silently...

...and the drawer fits and glides so I'm really happy with that fix...

~Have a lovely day!
