Paint the Walls

Painting is easiest if it is done before construction ../Assets/ajax-loader.gif

01. I paint the walls before beginning construction 01D.png

02. I intend to put on only the amount of paint that will soak in and leave a scant amount on the surface 02D.png

03. That tells me I have saturated the wood but it doesn't leave a lot to sand off to make it smooth 03D.png

04. Sanding down to the wood one clapboard at-a-time 04D.png

05. The second coat goes on smooth and creamy 05D.png

06. Any dribbles will have to be cleaned up so a bit of care now saves time later 06D.png
