Thanks guys

So I started to use this sand paper, it's good stuff, you don't have to clean it as often and it works a lot longer. Remeber if you're sand paper isn't sanding well clean if off with a wire brush and more out of it.

80 grit is all you need for wood if you're painting or staining.

2018-04-07 15:46:44 UTC  

I’ve been meaning to get an 80 grit brush

2018-04-07 15:49:46 UTC  

Hahah nice

2018-04-07 15:50:25 UTC  

Thanks bro

2018-04-07 15:55:58 UTC  

Seriously though I use 80 grit to clean my spark plugs too

2018-04-07 15:56:25 UTC  

I’ve been using the same little square for about 7 years I think lol

2018-04-07 16:33:21 UTC  

Hahah that's awesome. People tend to throw it away to soon.

2018-04-07 16:36:04 UTC  

I sand paint and epox a lot and you get that build up, you can see it in that picture of the used paper, I knock it off with a wire brush and it works almost as well as a new piece.

2018-04-07 16:37:35 UTC  

I use those little sanding pads, the foam ones, I get a good 6 months or so out of one by keeping it clean.

2018-04-07 16:46:39 UTC  

I finally finished those church windows. After I glazed it. Before paint.

2018-04-07 16:48:47 UTC  

From that pic it looks like someone just cleaned it haha

2018-04-07 16:50:14 UTC  

Oh and while I'm at it, if you see paint like this, don't eat it... it's 100% lead based

This @here is an example of true Identarian craftsmanship guys; the sort of expertise that made our ancestors famous from the Renaissance of the 1500s to the Golden Age of the 1900s. Well done @RevStench. You’re an example to all of us.

2018-04-07 18:04:40 UTC  

That looks fantastic!

2018-04-07 18:28:38 UTC  

I only fixed the broken glass in the windows and made them functional again. We hung that crown molding. But that staircase is in incredible shape, quality craftsmanship. I figured you would appreciate it, the only work I did was replace the old worn out treads and that's it. The home was built in the late 1890s and a family with 14 kids lived there until the youngest died about 10 years ago.

2018-04-07 18:39:13 UTC  

@RevStench I'm a dumbass, dude, I never even thought to scrape the wood off of sandpaper

2018-04-08 19:12:49 UTC  

@John O - haha bro, we all are. I used to go through so much sand paper until I started working for this old guy.

KNOWLEDGE

2018-04-19 23:14:58 UTC  

Pro tip, I know I already showed this when there was a teaching channel, but if you chip a small sliver of wood off of pretty anything, don't have any glue or a small twist drill for a pilot hole. No problem.
Blunt the tip of nail, basically turning it into a cut nail(the old style that look like rail road spikes). It's better to cut the wood fiber than it is to separate it.

Put a little epox on it and paint. Strip it first, but good as new. 2 nails is over kill but it's a top sash so it takes a beating.

2018-04-20 20:06:59 UTC  

Check out how clever these old guys were.
