Wet sanding oil finishes is a great technique to get a very smooth finished surface. The fine particles fill the grain nicely.

Current project. Working on a lemonade stand for my daughter and the neighbor kids. I'm doing blue and yellow on alternating panels.
I used some build plans, but I suspect I'll be adding a few more pieces once all the side and roof panels get put on.

I dunno. She's going to have to sell 50 gallons of lemonade just to pay for the stand.

Yea dude. Like $400 in lumber.

Don't worry, we'll be learning lessons about profit and debt after the first day.

Don't forget taxes. The son of my niece sold lemonaide in a busy area a few years ago. Someone coming home form work paid with a $100/bill and didn't want change. My sister said she was going to introduce him to taxes and take part of it lol.

I thought the waterlox countertop turned out quite well. I still need to do the backsplash. Thanks for the advice.

came close to buying this, but talked myself out of it as didn't need another project. the clamps were frozen but the thumb screws moved. apparently there are some rollers in there, guess that would be the gamble.

did some reading, having the correct rulers and stops can take this from being worth $50 to $200+. they wanted $25 for it.
