Day 2382 A big box of pollocks

20th February 2024

We finished the Jackson Pollock, posted it and it was sold within a couple of hours and picked up. Now that doesn’t happen very often.

As Kelli was getting it ready, she commented on three drawer bottoms that were a bit dodgy. There had been a self adhesive sheet in the bottom that she removed to reveal a stained plywood floor panel.

I had just over an hour to remove and replace. Fortunately I had some ply to make two and then scratched around to find material to make another. With a cool head I did the job, and the dresser was ready to collect.

It was just as well that it was a warm day, 49 degrees C, almost tee shirt and shorts weather, that helped.

To get that sold and out was a great boost, now we have to finish the commission piece and another long dresser, that needs a lot of work, it should be good for another day, so the garage door will remain open.
