First Coat!!

Postby Steve Frederick » Wed Jun 23, 2004 8:02 pm

Well, I got the first coat of varnish on the Tear tonight...Wow!, All that sanding for two evenings paid off :shock:
Two or three to go..only for the UV protection. Then hinging doors and galley lid! Wow! I'm almost there!
Thanx for the support! Gotta go close the garage, the Tear is a big fly paper..:wink:

That tear is just incredible. Maybe someday I'll get to see it up close.

It keeps looking better and better. Can't wait to see it all put together.

Steve,

Wished that I had 1/8" the ability you have with wood. Looks great.
