That is a great looking bed, Denny.

 

Should be w/ 16 hrs. of block sanding !!!!

 

Ok thanks AX and everybody. That helps a lot!! T

 

Firstrider, your bed looks fantastic. I'm saving those pictures and if mine ends up half as nice I'll be happy!!

 

Just a FEY (For Everyone's Information)
POR 15 is not some mysterious wonder paint invented by the NSA, NASA, NBA or extraterrestrials!
It is a type of industrial coating called "moistured cured urethanes" It is a single component product that reacts with the moisture in it's surrounding environment to form a very tough almost everything resistant finish. It is available from Sherwin Williams in 2 gallon pails in several premixed colors and can be tinted to many other colors. I used it to paint my concrete garage floor because of it's toughness and because it was certified for application to concrete after only 30 days of curing. It will bond to all common construction materials and is commonly used as an interior finish for steel or concrete municipal water storage tanks and for jet plane hanger floors.

 

Jeez Loize, that is beautiful. I'm noticing the stainless (or chrome) sill at the back. I'm considering getting one. Did you get that from one the online parts places?
Thanks

Here is another one:
6 coats of helmsman spar urethane by minwax, polished strips from mid-fifty.

 

Like the unstained look, and the ss trim on the sill and the sides. What kind of wood?

 

It is just oak (white)? as sold by mid-fifty. I put a stain on it but don't remember the color.
