Can I get the plans for the bar stools? Love them - We are DIYers with an edge. My husband is going to build the stools and would like the measurment for them. They match the table he built! Thanks Cat »

Custom Home Planning Center If you need a furniture construction plan. I do some design work for a local shop and can walk you through the process. Given the labels on the stretchers these are manufactured. I might also consider buying one and reverse engineer the process if no better plan becomes available. These look sturdy enough and the reach through in the center is good addition to the seat. I could also price it for you as a pre cut kit for you to assemble and finish.

Breakfast bar - How deep (wide) is the bar? Thanks in advance. »

Sharon McCormick It's 10". Wider is better, though, so it can fit larger plates,

amyspaulding Thanks, Sharon. I will consider something wider for a formal bar area. This has a neat view. Thanks for your response.

How do you protect the wood floor from water damage from rain? - I would like to put a wood floor in my sun porch (it is now carpeted), but I worry that rain will damage it. Is there a special finish that you used to help preserve the floor here? I see that it is wet. »
