Time in the shop has been pretty tight lately but I have finished building all the cases for the lockers. Started staining last week. Jordan and Jess were down a few weekends ago, so I sent stain samples home with them. Lisa picked out the mahogany stain, so we got started.
Using a gel stain, which is pretty easy to apply. Because it is gel, it does not run. Wipe it on with cloths and wipe off. Need to do two coats, but I have about 10 of 21 cases done with the first coat.
The plan is to get all the cases stained, build the frame for the bottom in the shop, have the face frame boards cut and stained before we haul everything to Idaho. When we get to Idaho, install everything, put the face frames on, measure for the doors and go back home to build the doors.
