It's been another busy day, really...
I spent a good propotion of my time on the deck,
minding the bootsholders. I am pleased that I now have
10 of them ready for delivery.
Right now, I guess that I have something like 50 of
these at various stages of compolition. More will have
to be completed for subsequent deliveries.
In the meantime, while working on the bootsholders
other things are drying upstairs...
Spoons and things were wet-sanded and they need some time
before recoating. Butter knives were also brought out
for further drying.
How actually I allocate my time is a constant headache.
There are clear cut cases, but more often the deciion
is a difficult one to make...
I allow good 24 hours for them to dry.
See above? I was curious and I made one of them
into a shape. I am happy now. I expected faults,
but they are negligible.
Am I not artisan enough?, by now?
I can reproduce things! I will be making 100 of these
beasts in the next one week or so.
Having said all that, quite a propotion of my other
time was actually spent on painting the wood deck.
It has been neglected for years by now.
I thought it was about time I had done something
about it. You will see it in tommorrow's image.
Yes, tommorrow. I may actually take my bootsholders
to the department store for delivery. She is
waiting...
Most of tommorrow's work will centre around the
butter knives, I think...
