I found my bag of scrap leather.
Cutting out a strip of the brownish leather to use as a wrap for the handle on the old Gerstner tool case...

Dining table bench - part 11 -- sand one end of the board...
The ends of the board have "burn" marks from the table saw.
Will sand it down.
Left side is done.
Right side is also done.
Used a pretty aggressive sand paper.
Will sand later with some finer paper...

Dining table bench - part 10 -- Finish the butterfly & sand some more...
Will first plane down the butterfly closer to the board.
After the plane, will use the random orbital sander to sand down the butterfly and take care of some extra plane marks.
Also, there's a section of the board where the wood is "burnt" from the last sanding.
The butterfly is about 0.5 mm over-flush.
The purple wood is very hard and sanding it down, even the small amount, will take quite a bit of time.
Random Orbital Sander.
After sanding with an aggressive pad.
Will sand with finer paper later.
