10th June 2024
A cold breeze made me realise that I should have had sleeves as we took the dogs for a walk.
We tried to start much earlier in the day, there was a lot to do this week.
The temperature is due to fluctuate quite a bit this week, although it is bearable in the sun, the shade is a different matter.
I hauled out my work coat, but as I was wearing shorts it looked like I was wearing a dress, or a flasher Mac.
I spent most of my time rebuilding the dresser I collected from Muskegon. I stripped and sanded the top which was solid walnut, the second dresser we have, and this is going to the same customer. I had to set in a piece of timber to an area where some was missing. This is satisfying work, I also had challenges with the top. It had been attached with screws, leaving large ragged holes that had to be filled.
Kelli was busy spraying a clear finish to various tops and drawer fronts.
We decided to add a darker tint to the mix, that didn’t work out as planned, so a lot of sanding will have to be done tomorrow.
