The Bed Frame pt. 6

Progress. This last weekend turned out nice enough that I was able to get the posts for the head board cleaned up and managed to get the first coat of stain on.

Sanding down the remaining swirls and odd marks on both posts

Success. The first coat of stain went on rather easily and while there are a few touch up spots I'm fairly pleased the the overall results.

In the process of applying the stain I did manage to stain part of my foot. The shoes were old but I really liked them plus the stain turned my foot a nice shade of mahogany. The important thing though is that the posts are almost done. The head board should be completed soon and then we can move to the frame.
