Furniture

We had originally said we would not re-use the existing furniture for the front of the trailer - thinking that two small recliners would be more comfortable.  But we decided that maybe going back with the original might be the correct course.

The "driver's side" settee is in pretty good shape.  Just mainly dusty and faded.  

The "passenger side" bench, however has a good bit of "rot" at the base due to the wet floor.  It will require some re-build.

Here is the "before" photo as it was when we picked up the trailer.  Cushions are absolutely new - I've stored them (and all the fabric items) in the guest room closet in the house so they wouldn't deteriorate.






So, I addressed the "easy one" first!










Cleaned up, light sanded  and ready for polyurethane.









First coat -  4 coats eventually.



Last coat - outside to dry in the breeze.  This photo looks a little "redder" than it really is.
