My gunrack (lots of pix)
Got a gunrack from my grandpa the other day. The wood was real rough, painted sky blue and had notches in it for fishing poles. Well since the wood was rough i needed to sand it down, strip the paint, stain it, remove the notches for the fishing poles and reassemble it. A good days project!
[img]http://www.movv.com/prvupload/files/simo-rack004.JPG[/img] Here it is with most of its blue paint on, sanding it off took forever [img]http://www.movv.com/prvupload/files/simo-rack005.JPG[/img] took it apart to get real deep in the corners [img]http://www.movv.com/prvupload/files/simo-rack006.JPG[/img] Most paint is off, still have those notches i need to saw off [img]http://www.movv.com/prvupload/files/simo-rack002.JPG[/img] 98% finished! stained it and added some felt strip to the wood so my rifles wont stick [img]http://www.movv.com/prvupload/files/simo-rack001.JPG[/img] Finished. If you look closely you can see i removed the notches in the front. [img]http://www.movv.com/prvupload/files/simo-rack003.JPG[/img] Sorry for my poor photography skills. I'm debating on whether or not i should restain the wood again. |
looks nice. good job.
|
Restain another coat simo, than it will look 10 times better
|
use some aging techniques, to match the weapons, to dents scratches and smoking it
|
nice man, it looks great, but like Milla said, I don't think another coat wouldn't hurt. The felt is a great idea.

simply beautiful rock:
i wish i had a rifle or two from ww2 |
Stacy: Well, don't you want to open your present?
Wayne Campbell: If it's a severed head I'm going to be very upset Stacy: Open it. Wayne Campbell: What is it? Stacy: It's a gun rack. Wayne Campbell: A gun rack... a gun rack. I don't even own *a* gun, let alone many guns that would necessitate an entire rack. What am I gonna do... with a gun rack? Stacy: You don't like it? Fine. You know Wayne, if you're not careful, you're going to lose me. Wayne Campbell: I lost you 2 months ago. We broke up. Are you mental? Get the net! |
