Almost Done Sanding Steam Trunk
I'm almost done sanding. Just cleaning up the edges. I should have this part of the project completed sometime next week. I'll post some pictures soon.
I discovered your blog this evening and know that you haven't posted in about a year. I hope that you change your mind and come back to tell me how your project finishes!
I would also love to hear what happened to the trunk. I'm going to replace my handles, lock and clasps, so if you have info on those things I'd love to hear them.
