Re: Recently Finished Arbor


Thanks Mike!

Cedar, yes. 6 hrs. for milling, 8-10 hrs. for sanding, 8-10 hrs. for pre-stain, 2 full days for assembly and another 8-10 hrs. for putty & final 2 coats of stain.

I was quite happy with the results.

Thanks cranbrook. I built that arbor for the front of Mark Cullen's wife's store. The US guys won't know who he is but I thought you would.
