Mission San Juan Capistrano was founded on All Saints Day November 1, 1776 by Spanish Catholics of the Franciscan Order. Named for a 15th century theologian and "warrior priest" who resided in the Abruzzo region of Italy, San Juan Capistrano has the distinction of being home to the oldest building in California still in use, a chapel built in 1782; known alternately as "Serra's Chapel" and "Father Serra's Church," it is the only extant structure wherein it has been documented that the padre officiated over mass. One of the best known of the Alta California missions (and one of the few missions to have actually been founded twice — others being Mission San Gabriel Arcángel and Mission La Purísima Concepción) — the site was originally consecrated on October 30, 1775 by Father Fermín Lasuén, but was quickly abandoned due to unrest among the indigenous population in San Diego.

The success of the settlement is evident in its historical records. Prior to the arrival of the missionaries, some 550 natives were scattered throughout the local area; by 1790, the number of converted Christians had grown to 700, and just six years later nearly 1,000 "neophytes" (recent converts) lived in or around the Mission compound. 1,649 baptisms were conducted that year alone, out of the total 4,639 souls converted between 1776 and 1847. More than 2,000 former inhabitants (mostly Juaneño Indians) are buried in unmarked graves in the Mission's cemetery (campo santos). The remains of Father (later Monsignor) St. John O'Sullivan, who recognized the property's historic value and working tirelessly to conserve and rebuild its structures, are buried at the entrance to the cemetery on the west side of the property, and a statue raised in his honor stands at the head of the crypt. The surviving chapel also serves as the final resting place of three padres who passed on while serving at the Mission: Fathers José Barona, Vicente Fustér, and Vicente Pascual Oliva are all entombed beneath the sanctuary floor.

The Criolla or "Mission grape," was first planted at San Juan Capistrano in 1779; in 1783, the first wine produced in Alta California emerged from the Mission 's winery. The Mission entered a long period of gradual decline after secularization in 1833. Numerous efforts were made over the years to restore the Mission to its former glory, but none met with great success until the arrival of Father O'Sullivan in 1910. Restoration efforts continue, and "Serra's Chapel" is still used for religious services. About half-a-million visitors, including 80,000 school children, come to the Mission each year. And, while the ruins of "The Great Stone Church" (which was all but leveled by an 1812 earthquake) are a renowned architectural wonder, the Mission is perhaps best known for the annual "Return of the Swallows" which is traditionally observed every March 19 (Saint Joseph's Day). Mission San Juan Capistrano has served as a favorite subject for many notable artists, and has been immortalized in literature and on film numerous times, perhaps more than any other mission. In 1984, a modern church complex was constructed just north and west of the Mission compound; the design is patterned after the old stone church, and is twenty percent larger.

How to make a hard surface desk mat for a desk chair on carpet ...


Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Things You’ll Need:

  • MATERIALS:
  • 1 plastic mat for a desk chair with carpet fingers.
  • 1 package of 8-inch wide wood interlocking flooring (7 pieces)
  • 3-4 ft. pieces of molding. (Optional)
  • Wood glue
  • Liquid Nails™
  • TOOLS
  • Rubber mallet
  • Router
  • Router bit for edge triming
  • Saw (hand or table) for splitting one piece of flooring
  • 2-Clamps for router guide.
Step1
The typical plastic floor mat has a 40-to 42-inch deep by XX inch wide area behind the desk for the chair to roll on, and a 12- to 14-inch tongue that fits under the desk for the feet to rest on.
Step2
Assemble the first two pieces of the interlocking flooring. Lay one piece of flooring face-up on a large table. Place a bead of wood glue on the matching lip of a second flooring piece. Interlock the two flooring pieces, then align the ends of the two flooring pieces carefully before pressing down to lock into place. (Note: The ends must be aligned to assure the cross pieces interlock correctly. Light tapping with a mallet can provide a fine adjustment.) Place a weight on the joint to hold the assembly flat for a few minutes until the glue begins to set and the joint stabilizes.
Step3
Repeat step one with additional pieces of flooring keeping the ends carefully alighned, until 6 pieces are assembled.
Step4
Using a saw, split one piece of laminate down the center lengthwise. The edge will be straightened and smoothed with a router later on in the project. To ensure the laminate did not splinter, I marked the back of the flooring and used a draw saw to do the cutting. When using a hand saw you may have place a wedge in the saw cut to keep the saw moving freely since the wood is under a lot of tension and may bind the saw after a few inches.
Step5
Assemble the two pieces onto the ends of the 6-piece assembly using glue and interlocking the pieces and the assembly together. Weigh the entire assembly down with a weight heavy enough to keep the assembly flat and let set until the glue dries.
Step6
Place the flooring assembly upside down on a flat surface. Using a straight guide, route the interlocking edges off of the sides of the assembly. Remove only enough material to remove the exposed interlocking edges. Use the router to trim the extending ends of the flooring pieces mounted on the ends of the flooring assembly. Trim the cut edges of the flooring pieces mounted on the ends of the assembly, removing a minimum amount of material.
Step7
Measure the width foot/knee space available under the desk Add 1-inch for clearance. This will be the width of the tongue of the floor mat. Mark off the tongue width on one end of the flooring assembly. Either center or offset the tongue depending on the type of desk it is being built for. If one end has a better appearance than the other choose the least attractive piece to go under the desk.
Step8
Measure the length of the plastic floor mat not including the tongue. Use this dimension to mark off the depth of the mat that will be under the office chair.
Finish marking the pieces that will be removed.
Step9
Clamp a router guide to the assembly and using a router with an edging bit, remove the pieces marked for removal in step six. I used a framing square clamped to the flooring assembly to give straight square edges and a pleasing arc in the corner.
Step10
Apply Liquid Nails™ adhesive to the back of the flooring assembly. Stay far enough from the edges so the adhesive will not squeeze out of the joint when the plastic mat is pressed onto the glue. Step11 Lay the plastic chair mat, carpet fingers up, onto the assembly. Align the side edges and the back edge of the mat with the flooring assembly. If the mat is too wide, some mat plastic may have to be trimmed later. For now center the mat side to side on the flooring. Weigh down the assembly and allow the adhesive to dry. Step12 At this point the mat can be used as it is. It provides an attractive hard surface. You may want to add the optional molding around the edge to help keep the chair from rolling off the mat, and to protect your feet from the edges of the flooring if you like to walk around barefoot. Cut and miter the molding, and attach with Liquid Nails™ to the floor mat.
