Day 1478 Dumb ass!

28th August 2021

“ You didn’t really want to do that dad”, sums up the day I had.

Instead of my tried and tested method of finishing stained worktop I decided to do something different.

I had already stained the top and was ready for the sealing coat.

I wanted to use the sprayer and a water based polyurethane to finish the top.

Everything was going well until it started to dry, then I noticed every stain and blemish and generally looked rubbish. I had only one solution, remove the coating, re- stain and start again.

Meanwhile, Kelli primed and finish coated the French Provincial carcass in the palest blue, looked really classy.

We also had a couple round to collect the latest dresser that was posted.

It turned out, that the man was a teacher who had taught Kelli’s son, Cameron, so there was a lot of catching up to do.

We learnt that he was a Trump supporter, the cap he wore gave a big clue, had I had known, I would have charged them double.
