John Deere Mail Box

Hay raining today so lets make ourselves a John Deere Mail Box-I went to Lowes and found a steel mail box for 13-bucks-while there i checked paint dept. and found john deere green paint (spray )-5-bucks-went on ebay and found john deere stickers-sprayed mail box with a light coat then after about 6 hours sprayed with a haver coat-buy doing it this way you will not get any runs in paint-well it took 3 days for the stickers to cime in the mail-each sticker cost 2-bucks-i placed stickers on mail box and then sprayed a light coat of acrylic lacqure over stickers to put a seal on them.this is a fun project-and your friends will ask where you got it. this hole project cost about 25-bucks-not bad when they sell on ebay for 99.00.any questions you can email me-see ya Dave

what new

Hi everyone-well its been a long time but here is a table and benches i found at a flea market-when i saw this set I said this would look good in a cherry color-only gave 60.00 for it.it was blond and i made it cherry-what do ya think-well did not take much to do -just light sanding with 120 sand paper and stained with midwax stain(red mahocany#225) i love this color.after the stain dries i apply 2 or 3 coats of high gloss lacqure-i like the finish it gives-brings out the grain in the wood.i will try to post more items-i get things to redo and i forget to take pictures and my wife ask me why i did not post-well ill try to do better. see ya Dave
