[Rhodes22-list] Slim's Tiller

[Steve Alm]

Ed, Roger, Todd and Paul,
Thanks for all the info, advice, procedures and options.  I've stripped and
sanded all my kitchen cabinets too (vintage 1934 woodwork) so I have a lot
of wood finishing and restoration do to.  I've been doing so much sanding
late at night after work that Mary Ann is now calling me Mr. Sandman.  :-)

The Slim One
