	Tit-for-tat	1 Relevance	14 years ago	tick	General discussion
	Tit-for-tat To be honest, I was not sure if I should bother replying to the previous post, but seeing as I am a part of a sinister lobby misleading the public, I felt it my duty. Not wanting to engage in a tit-for-tat and it's obvious that you actually never read my post. The OECD report I found online simply provides a definition of piracy, which includes furniture. You're right, I'm not who I claim to be, I am part of a sinister lobby who care about design. The lobby is called the Design Addict Community. Why shouldn't I be outraged that crime gangs are involved in the making of fake designer goods? We should all be outraged that rain forests in parts of Asia are being torn down to fuel our desires for timber products. That's my opinion and I think it's a valid one. I think your response clearly demonstrates your position, and that's fine, but don't go on the attack because someone disagrees with you, your not in the office now. And for the record, I am an academic and researcher whose research on post-war industrial designers is archived by my country's National Library. By the way, if you also value design, there is a thing called a paragraph, you should try it. Trolling was the last thing I expected to find on DA, but it's seems to be everywhere these days.
	THE RESULTS OF THE VISIT	1 Relevance	19 years ago	NULL NULL	General discussion
	THE RESULTS OF THE VISIT Ok so I show up at his store. I walk in and - wonder of wonders - the guy is actually about 5'8" but STILL about 250lbs."So this is a good thing" I think to myself. I introduce myself, immediately tell him the situation, show him the receipts and add that I first wanted to confront him calmly with hopes for an amicable conclusion. The guy(Gary)becomes very agitated and defensive. I could tell right off that he knew he was busted doing something unethical. At one point he asked me (rather nervously) "How did you find out it was here"? I replied: "It's a small city Gary, I know people. It really doesn't matter since I'm here talking to you and my sofa is sitting in your store." I then asked him: " So how are we going to resolve this?" He replied:" Well I don't know...It's MINE!" My reply was: " Well I just thought that I would take the high road and drive all the way over here hoping you'd do the right thing...but it looks like I'm going to have to go with plan-B". That statement seemed to have struck a chord, he asked: " Well...what's plan-B?" I said ( I swear this is true ) "Well Gary, I guess you're going to find out." He then said: " Why don't you come back tomorrow...let me think about this." So, the saga continues. My wife's birthday is today and I will be busy with that. However, this ain't over. Stay tuned. I do have to admit that I must have cut an imposing form in my crisp business suit-peanut butter coif and leashed iguana at my side...
	I would not expect much from	1 Relevance	11 years ago	leif ericson - Zephyr Renner	General discussion
	I would not expect much from stripper, but if you do, go straight for the heavy stuff with methylene chloride (just read the label). It is hard enough getting every surface on a chair, so getting them all 3-4 times with a soy or citrus stripper will be particularly onerous. The methylene chloride stripper will probably do what it is going to do the first time around. You will then probably need to sand. I expect you will then still see areas where color has seeped in. And there is one other thing you can use here that will probably be effective. Two part wood bleach. It is dangerous stuff. And It is not easy to buy. I found no problems find thing two parts separately, though. Part A is crystalline 100% sodium hydroxide AKA lye, which is available as a drain cleaner. Part B is 30% hydrogen peroxide, which is sold in some natural food stores. (This is not normal pharmacy grade hydrogen peroxide, it is 30%). You would don a space suit, mix up some lye, and paint it on. Then when it dries you would apply the hydrogen peroxide. Again wearing the chemical protection space suit, seriously. It will bleach the color right out of the wood. But since beech is nasally light it wouldn't really look much different than when it was fresh cut. Then you have to add the color back...

	I certainly know of no documentation that would suggest that. I think it would be more likely that someone invented the Hans Olsen thing for financial reasons and people have continued to repeat it. i would stick with that as the more likely explanation unless you can turn up another vintage ad that contradicts the one you posted.
