As you may know I’ve been working on my china cabinet for some time now. This is the biggest re-do I’ve ever attempted (I think) and its taking longer than I expected.
My first attempt was sanding by hand. After one day, I was in dyer need of a manicure! After a week in recovery I purchased the snazziest detail sander there is from the hardware store. I finished a small amount, but the wood detail still required sanding by hand.
So I purchased this, and tried it on the cabinet door.
Stripper + old stained wood = an easy fix?
It worked well, but I guess you could say I was expecting a miracle.
And this is just the sanding process, I don’t even want to think about re-staining the wood. Oh well, this is a project I’m determined to finish!
Have a lovely week.

I don't think I have your patience. This is why I haven't attempted any furniture yet. . . My day is coming though... LOL
Have you tried any of that "liquid sandpaper"? I've read about it on some blogs. Definitely worth looking into.
