Hit the deck

Here's a POV from the newly finished floor.

3 coats of finish over 3 days (waterborne, so we ended up smelling worse than the floor.)

We are all made of stars...

...even the sandpaper; scratchy, scratchy stars.

Sand and Deliver

We logged 17 hours behind one kind of sander or another. You can't see our tongues sticking out behind our dust masks.

Prime Time

It's amazing what a coat of polyvinyl acetate and a little sunshine will do to a room.

Now, if we can just choose a color to paint we'll be home free.
