[speaker001:] Okay [LAUGHTER], what, do you do artistic painting?
[speaker002:] Uh, I do tole painting.
[speaker001:] Oh, you do?
[speaker002:] Uh-huh, I really love the tole painting. Uh, I haven't done any of the oil or watercolor. I would like to learn that someday, but right now my passion is tole painting [LAUGHTER].
[speaker001:] Do you do a lot of it?
[speaker002:] Uh-huh.
[speaker001:] I, I took one class about, I guess three or four years ago and I've done a little, uh,
[speaker002:] Oh.
[speaker001:] But it takes a lot of time [LAUGHTER].
[speaker002:] It does, it is real time consuming and,
[speaker001:] D-, do you sell your projects?
[speaker002:] Uh, [breathing] mostly I have just given them away as gifts.
[speaker001:] Uh-huh.
[speaker002:] Uh, I've done, uh, perpetual calendars and [inhaling] cookie jar lids and, oh, on and on, you know, just things like that, but
[speaker001:] Uh-huh.
[speaker002:] uh, I would eventually like to make enough to sell and quit my job [LAUGHTER].
[speaker001:] [LAUGHTER] Where do you work at?
[speaker002:] I just work at Stop and Shop out there in, in Ogden so,
[speaker001:] Now do you ever send any of your stuff to the boutique?
[speaker002:] No, [breathing] I've wanted to do that, uh, but just haven't, just haven't mass produced enough to do that.
[speaker001:] Uh-huh.
[speaker002:] So, I have five children of my own, so it's
[speaker001:] [LAUGHTER] That keeps you busy.
[speaker002:] they, they keep me busy and tole painting is just a, you know, something I do in my spare time so [LAUGHTER],
[speaker001:] Uh-huh. Have you tried any of the, well, do you cut out your own projects?
[speaker002:] Yes, uh-huh, I have my own saws and so I really enjoy doing that.
[speaker001:] Huh. Do you, uh, ever spray your projects with the, I mean a base coat first or do you brush it on?
[speaker002:] I brush it on, yeah, I haven't tried a, a spray varnish. I use just a wood sealer.
[speaker001:] Uh-huh.
[speaker002:] Yeah.
[speaker001:] I just bought a spray gun, one of those airless, uh, not airless, high volume, low pressure spray guns.
[speaker002:] Oh, uh-huh.
[speaker001:] And I do a lot of woodworking and
[speaker002:] Do you?
[speaker001:] that's what I bought it for.
[speaker002:] Oh.
[speaker001:] But I haven't used it yet.
[speaker002:] Oh, well that's that 'ud probably give you a smoother finish, wouldn't it?
[speaker001:] Yeah.
[speaker002:] Oh.
[speaker001:] Yeah.
[speaker002:] Now what type of woodworking do you do?
[speaker001:] Uh, fine furniture.
[speaker002:] Oh
[speaker001:] Yeah.
[speaker002:] do you?
[speaker001:] That's why I brought, bought the sprayer
[speaker002:] Oh.
[speaker001:] is to finish my projects. That's my worst, [inhaling] worst part of my woodworking. I get so sick of making [LAUGHTER],
[speaker002:] Oh, [LAUGHTER] but it's hard to finish it, huh.
[speaker001:] Yeah, but spraying does put on a nicer finish.
[speaker002:] Oh, well, that is interesting. So, what kind of equipment do you have?
[speaker001:] For woodworking?
[speaker002:] Uh-huh.
[speaker001:] Uh, let me see, table saw, scroll saw, band saw, lathe, routers, and -t's about it.
[speaker002:] Boy, it sounds like you're really into it. That is nice.
[speaker001:] Yeah, it is.
[speaker002:] Yeah, I, I just have a scroll saw and a jig saw and I am really anxious to get a band saw and a router [LAUGHTER].
[speaker001:] [LAUGHTER] Yeah, the band saw is really nice. I have an Inca. I don't know if you've ever heard of those.
[speaker002:] Oh.
[speaker001:] But it's nice to have the right equipment.
[speaker002:] Yeah, that is, that makes it easier, doesn't it?
[speaker001:] Uh-huh.
[speaker002:] Well, have you sold any of your furniture or
[speaker001:] Uh
[speaker002:] just,
[speaker001:] not, mostly I do like you do, give it away as gifts.
[speaker002:] Uh-huh.
[speaker001:] But,
[speaker002:] Yeah.
[speaker001:] Making my own furniture.
[speaker002:] Oh, that's interesting. Do you, uh, did you take classes to learn how to do that?
[speaker001:] Uh, just in junior high
[speaker002:] Uh-huh.
[speaker001:] and then I just kept on through high school and then [inhaling] got my own equipment, kept up with that.
[speaker002:] Oh, so yours is mostly just a hobby, too, then.
[speaker001:] Yeah.
[speaker002:] Oh.
[speaker001:] Yeah.
[speaker002:] Well, that is interesting. Oh, I would, I really would love to go take a class in woodworking and learn how to. I don't know if I necessarily want to do furniture, but mostly, uh, just
[speaker001:] Like
[speaker002:] do more,
[speaker001:] the shelves and,
[speaker002:] Uh-huh, the woodworking.
[speaker001:] For your
[speaker002:] Uh,

[speaker002:] Yeah.

[speaker002:] [LAUGHTER] Well, it has, it has been really fun. I've enjoyed this. Uh, like I say, I've made a couple of calls to Texas, and
[speaker001:] Uh-huh.
[speaker002:] just talked to all different kinds of people so I think you'll enjoy doing it.
[speaker001:] Yeah.
[speaker002:] It's fun.
[speaker001:] Sounds fun. Where do you buy your tole painting paints at around here?
[speaker002:] Uh, you know, there's a shop in Roy that I really love. Uh, and it's there by the, Copper Mill restaurant, used to be the Hayloft.
[speaker001:] I am not famil-, well, we live in Roy , but, we haven-, is it on nineteen hundred?
