    Hi, Milo! Hi, Andy. WOW! You sure took it to heart when she said "Ugly Duckling." That poor piece was so terribly abused, and you brought it back from the dead. I especially love what you did with the doors. Keep up the good work.

I ❤ the stencil!! And the walnut stain. Andy-take 1 or 2 of your plants on balcony and add to your staging pix-Ladies Love that!!! You have quite the little garden going on!!!

    For future reference. To remove fat form surfaces, you can use brown paper (butchers paper) and a hot iron. You put the paper over the fat and iron it. The absorb the fat.

    When I first saw this piece my initial thought was 'with all that fat/grease/oil that would be great kindling - but nothing else'. Obviously I was not correct. This piece needed Andy's attention with Milo's supervision. Excellent work! Kudos for your patience and insight. New subscriber.
