Thread: out in the bush working and what an eye opener lol

Tweet

its been another bloody hot day out here in the bush, finally finished the cottage this morning then went down the track and started the homestead, am hoping to be finished Thursday morning and heading back home about lunch time, fingers crossed everything goes OK.
can't wait to get back home to my air conditioned house and back into my own bed and using a toilet that is not occupied by big green frogs lol
the two rooms and the main room in the cottage came up OK and the cocky likes them so i guess thats one good thing, now i just have to hope the homestead comes up just as good and he is happy with that as well.
never got any decent pics of the floors in the cottage as the sun was too glare but here are a couple of the ones that turned out half ok.
cheers barnsey.

and this is the start of the homestead floors.

its start to cool down a bit just had a big storm move through but we only got the wind so far as all the rain has gone around us for now which is good as the track will be dry enough to get back to the homestead in the morning.made the trip back into Nyngan yesterday arvo and got some supplies and a carton of blonds, bloody Andrew has me addicted to them lol. i bought another phone so now i have service out here, it came with $10 credit but i used all the credit up activating it :roll:
anyway all is good out here but i am looking forward to taking a week off when i get back to work on my car.
cheers barnsey

you do beautiful work.

I remember my Dad, who was a school superintendent in small town districts in Missouri, working one summer with the school janitor to refinish the maple floors in the school gymnasium, and then bringing the machinery home one weekend and doing the floors in the living room area of the house we were renting at the time. That is physical, intense work horsing those sanders around all day! You indeed do beautiful work. Just curious, what type of finish (varnish, polyurethane, something else?) do you apply, and what is your application method?
