Day 1894 A scratch in time

20th October 2022

There was a glimpse of the sun which made the brisk temperature quite bearable.

We had a dresser to finish, I had the kitchen unit to complete priming.

We are still driving around with a truck full of furniture, we should be storing them up at Georgia’s storage facility (GST) but we hadn’t the energy to do that.

I have two mid century style pieces to finish they are taking up a lot of room.

There was an inquiry to paint six dining chairs and a table base in black. This isn’t a bad job if our quote is excepted, I have learnt from doing others how long it takes and what I should charge to make it worth our while.

Later, the same person sent us a picture of the dining table with a large scratch on the top. Apparently it got damaged when they were moving it, so they asked if we could restore it.

Mmmmm, I thought, making scratches invisible is really difficult without stripping the top, I’m not sure how to respond to that.
