There is nothing better than envisioning a piece transformed in your mind upon discovery, and then making it happen and bringing that idea to fruition.  My latest refinishing project was a 1950's Cosco step stool.  Perhaps the kind most Grandmother's kept in their kitchens, and not uncommon in many households.  But this one was different.  the second one I would work on.  The first just sold at the Alameda show, and was truly unique.  This new one, started off yellow, and rusty, a piece I picked up in Kansas on my first drive across the country west.  And with some sanding, and rotary wire-brushing (and luckily no injuries this time) it is complete.  One of my favorite pieces now.  Hope it goes to a good home.
