Just a quick coat of paint, that’s all. Shouldn’t take more than a day or two at the most.
That’s how it all starts. In this case I needed to repair a good number of serious dings in the sheet rock on the walls (sheet rock was donated by a friend a number of years ago and it didn’t travel from his place to mine very well) as well as tape and sand all the joints. Then just prime and paint and I’ll be done and get back to doing something I’m good at. But while the shop is torn down I may as well install some trim around the window and door and install some baseboards to make sweeping up easier. Ok so that shouldn’t take long as all I need to do is cut the baseboard stuff to length and put some polyurethane on it. Just a few minutes really.
And as long as I’m at it I should clean everything and rearrange the benches for the best flow and the least number of steps between work areas. That shouldn’t take too long………. just a few minutes really.
If not for Karin I’d still be in there painting the floor. It needs a new coat of paint but she talked me off the ledge and I’ll tackle that this fall. I like a shiny floor. I wouldn’t have taken more than a few minutes really.
So now it’s all set and I’ve been back at work in there for a few days and it works very well and it’s bright and pleasant to be in there. While cleaning up I took an inventory of some items and see I have more than I need so I’ll be listing them here for sale soon.
Thanks for reading,
Dave
