This stuff is from a surveyor's supply store and is actually 29.4%
When I got the jug home, it was pooched out and didn't sit properly,
so I took it outside and cracked the lid. The fumes on my fingertip
let me know that I wanted to use gloves whenever I worked with it
in the future.

Good point. (Now where'd I put my diving mask? Goggles are holey.)

You had fun with this Andy!
FWIW One of the best sources for Greene and Greene is the Virtual Archives
site I mentioned above
http://cwis.usc.edu/dept/architecture/greeneandgreene/index.html
There are detailed original drawings which can be resized and printed.

I got to looking at the Shultz book and am seeing more and more
of why you assail him so. Some of those things are pure crap,
like the spline groove showing on the leg-front of the somnae.
The old PM Mission Furniture book came out this morning and I
decided, once again, to change my plan of styles on the
dictionary/encyclopedia stand here in my office. I don't want
the tall stand-and-read style after all and may make an octagonal
tabouret after all. It's about the right size to keep my Webster's
Hernia Edition and Enco/MSC/McMasters cats off the floor. Doug's
Elegant Tables book came out, too, so...
Once the oak is cut, I'll have scraps for testing this nastyass
ammonia. The 30% stuff AIN'T yo mama's 'monia. That's for sure.
Long sleeves, nitrile gloves, respirator, face shield, and proper
positioning of my body diagonally upwind of the box -outside- the
shop are all planned for this project.

Now you've got me thinking. My brother the agronomist works with
anhydrous ammonia fertilizer. Got to ask him how hard it would be to
get a propane cylinder filled with anhydrous, assuming the pressures are
close and it would be safe. Seems like a much handier way to deal with
the stuff than as a solution. Anybody had any experience with
anhydrous? I do know that the trailer tanks have to be brought in and
secured these days as the meth? makers use the stuff also. If they can
steal it in the middle of the night, must be a handy way it could be
dispensed to us.

Yes, but I decided to do it properly INSTEAD. ;)
The book was Andy Schultz' "Classic Arts & Crafts Furniture

Risky search though. Like Stickley, there's an awful lot of "Greene
and Greene" out there on the web that's anything but authentic in
style. Be careful, and compare any plans you find to a decent
coffee-table photo book of their original works.

I use 26%. If I'm quick I just throw it in the box unshielded, but
then I do have a nice ammonia fuming box with a proper lid. If I have
to full around re-stacking things in it while the dish is open, then I
use a full-face mask (mil surplus). I don't bother with gloves.
BTW - there is no point in wearing a half-face mask with ammonia. The
stuff's main point of entry is your eyes anyway.
On the subject of fume control, can anyone think of workshop uses for
a small lab fume cupboard ? It's maybe 2' x 2'6" wide. Friend of
mine has a couple looking for homes - they're very cute, but I really
can't think of a use offhand.

Ceramics class had a fume hood for spraying glaze on small bisque
