Coat Hook Rack-finish photos

 Hi Everyone,

I've finally gotten some spare time today after a very busy week to finish the coat hook racks. Here's the photos and explanation:

The construction of the rack is pretty simple and finishing it was as well. I used General Finishes gel finish in Candlelight and it looks good. It's gives the pine a rustic look. I used a clear spray finish over the stain, and I used some very simple metal coat hooks from the local big box store:



And that was it.

The rack is long enough to mount through the sheet rock and into the wooden studs underneath. The studs here locally are 18" apart. As the racks are 51 inches long, there is enough room for several screws. 

I think we can stick a fork in it and call it done.

The next project is a very simple coffee cup cabinet with narrow shelves for my daughter-in-laws pottery cups and I'll show that one to you too.

After this come the first turning project of the year-a fruit bowl made on the lathe.

See you all soon,
VW
