@johnsmith-wc8gs8 жыл бұрын
remember this is a rough sawn timber. they sanded the top to make it good for sitting not to mention the finish would have looked poorly applied over the stencil, especially unsanded. seeing how this is more or less a makers mark they typically go in an inconspicuous area. the bottom was the best place for it

john: Also, the stencil was on the concave side of the board. Convex side is usually on the top of the seat.
@donhill18256 жыл бұрын
You guys aren't wrong but what's the point of using this reclaimed wood with a cool stencil if nobody can see...the cool stencil. Put a lighter finish in the thing or something. Who cares if the stecil wears a little or if the concave side is up? That's the kind of shit that hapoens when you use reclaimed wood.
