Garage Works - 6/22/2025

I got this sewing machine for Father's Day, but today was the first time I plugged it in.  I also organized the feet and other accessories.  I'll have to practice on it a bit later - need to finish No.41 (as Miles is asking for a board to be made).


Speaking of No.41 - yesterday I sanded the top and bottom - and for the most part there weren't any real surprises.  It wasn't perfect - there were still some low spots, so that meant another fill coat.

I taped up the board for a bottom deck coat first.


You can see some of the low spots.


I used Pro-Link for the bottom fill - that won't be hidden by deck pads so it's worth putting it on the bottom.

And this evening I found some time to get the top deck coated.  I used regular aluzine epoxy for this coat.


Tomorrow I'll sand both sides through the sanding regime, then place another fill coat on the side of the trench I hadn't gotten to yet.  After that hardens, I'll get the leash plug and vent installed.

This one is getting close to anointment!
