Oak Beams
The project needed some old oak beams, we used some oak that was about 15 years old and cut it size before distressing the beams to look antique to match the 15th century barn. The technical term we came up for this was 'scuzzing'. We hacked at it with a power plane, cut mortices, angle grinded and basically hit it with anything we could to damage it. Kind of anti-carpentry.

Oak ledge and braced door
Making the Piano Stool
After gluing up the main boards with a Festool Domino jointer, sanding them and cutting the mitres on a table saw with a fine blade the stool was ready for jointing and gluing. The inner frame was made after the main stool and gently sanded until it fitted exactly inside to give support. All joints were domino'd and glued with very strong 5 minute external grade glue.
