Since I found remains of white paint on it, I decided to repaint it white. Actual color used was Rust-Oleum "ivory" since white these days is a more blinding white compared to way back when.
I also went out to see Jim Collums today for something else and I decided once I finish the woodmanse I'll donate it to his museum in Pleasanton

He said he was wanting to have that done. But it could always go outside to be a spinner aswell! We'll see, plans may change. I've still got a little ways to go in it. Haven't started on the wheel yet. After this one is gone though I'd like to find another woodmanse, either a mogul or a 6ft one with wood bearing like the one you have Wayne.
