Stained at lunch!!!
October28
In class today I didn’t end up doing any work on the box because there were to big lines to use tools and we were making a plan of the next 10 days. That’s right. We only have 10 days left.
I was going to come at lunch anyways but it made lots of sense especially because I didn’t do anything related to the box in class. So during lunch here is what I did:
-
Buy lunch
-
Bring it down to tech
-
Eat lunch
-
Work on box
-
Belt sand
-
Stain!
-
The belt sanding was just to get rid of the edge that it got from cutting off the top:
For staining I:
-
Put on a apron and gloves
-
Choose stain (I chose red mahogany)
-
Get rag
-
Apply stain
-
Put stain on one side
-
Dip brush in
-
Rub on stain
-
Repeat as many times as needed
-
Wipe off extra stain with rag
-
-
Repeat on all sides (except for inside)
-
Repeat for top
-
-
Put box in locker to dry
-
Dispose of used rag in garbage
-
Take off apron and gloves
I can’t wait to see it tomorrow!
