There is an old stool in the shop known for leaning and making noises. It has a collapsed seat that is uncomfortable to sit upon because edges are higher that the seat. While Riley, the shop dog, keeps on eye on the doors, the knifemaker's aunt rummages in her car trunk and comes up with a piece of wood for a repair.
To begin, the seat had to come off. Lo and behold,
Yikes! The base board was cracked and missing pieces of its edges. The bottom of the actual seat had collapsed and was starting to crumble. Certainly this stool needed some repair!
After spraying some gun oil on the spinning mechanism (yes, the seat spun around at one time!), the new board was screwed into position. With idle time on her hands, the knifemaker's aunt wrote on the seat (
The Cutting Edge of Custom Can Be a Bloody Place) and added silhouettes of an anvil and a horseshoe knife. Now it's a sturdy seat that spins around from one station to another!
