Dear Rich=rd,

Was Mr. Epstein satisfied with the photos?

I will work further on the columns and the rest of the Library. The =ard work was done long time ago, when I came with Bart and we worked on the=oak grain.

You see, when the oak grain is "closed" the wood looks=like plastic more than wood. You have to open the grain by using the steel =rush. Oak is very hard wood and the only way to open the grain is with stee= wire brush, than it will come alive. This week, all I have to do is apply&=bsp;the topical finish, which does not take much time. The preparation take= time. I am working on the horizontal surfaces and cabinet doors now and I =ill finish them tomorrow. I will check everything and Friday I will do the =ouch ups. If Mr. Epstein will request another set of pictures, I will =e glad to take it again.

Just for your information, in the US, w= are using four major types of Oak wood: 1. rift oak, the very best st=aight and elegant grain. 2. Quarter-saw, second best. 3. White oak and 4. r=d oak.

PS. Mr. E=stein requested that I will finish the Globe bases. The work on them will b= completed tomorrow night or Friday morning.
