That's a good start! It's going to look pretty cool once it's done and wearing a mile deep clear coat. Yours arrive in about the same condition as mine did, very rough. All those rasp gouges are going to be a lot of work. I bought a Makita electric palm sander, and some sticky-backed quality sand paper available at H. Depo. Probably saved myself 40 or 50 hours of sanding.

I'll try to post a pic.
