Do you do wall paintings?

In my experience of stuck-lids-on-jars-an'-bockles, it was the sun that
did it. I've always found that soaking the jar and lid in really hot
water does the trick.

Sounds right--As I've had to heat many bearings to get them on shafts or
shrink
the shaft using Co2 if bearing was to big to heat.

I should coco. I've done all the pub stools and several chairs now. I
tell you, I'm getting good at furniture restoration: once you've
summoned up the bottle to break the thing apart properly so you can get
at it, you're a good way there.

No, these are spindles for a "Captain's Chair" for our dear landlord.
One of those things with a semi-circular back/arms that seem to come
all the way around: green leather, set on castors. Much more delicate
than the pub furniture.
