Wilson's Woodworking Posted November 4, 2014 Report Posted November 4, 2014 Here is a step stool I built over the weekend out of blue pine. It measures 16 1/2" by 20" and is 10 1/2" tall. Forester 1 Quote
Doug Posted November 4, 2014 Report Posted November 4, 2014 I like it Danny - where did you find your blue pine? Quote
LarryEA Posted November 4, 2014 Report Posted November 4, 2014 That's a nice, well made step stool. Do you have plans to paint it? I'm on the fence whether you do or not. Quote
herrwood Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 I would not paint that, I like the grain pattern. Quote
amazingkevin Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 Me too! No paint no paint ! Quote

Wilson's Woodworking Posted November 5, 2014 Author Report Posted November 5, 2014 My wife loved the color of the wood so I just finished it with a satin varnish. The picture really does not do it justice. The grain pattern really jumps out at you. Doug go to Menards and sort thru the cheapest pine they have. The off color makes the grade it poorly but it is usually the best boards in the pile. If they figure out there is a market for blue pine they would probably charge more than what they do for the select boards. Quote
Rob Roy Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 That is one fine stool Danny, a lovely job indeed. The boss will be afraid to use it in case she gets it dirty. . Rob Roy. Quote
