CNNP Sheoak Coasters #2: Surface Finishs

370
11

I got the disc sander going again and 60 Grit  the coasters and timbermate.

I then switched back to the half sheet sander for 80 120 and 240 grit.


I found the easier to control everything by using the cork backing gripping the concrete driveway.
Blew the off with compressed air between trips to the bin as I swapped out various grits.
Mind you i didn't see a real difference, (apart from my stocks of sandpaper reducing!) but the surface was getting slippery to touch so I called it quits at 240.


Applied a first coat of surface finish and packed up for the day.

Not  a lot of progress in this post as I was plagued with intermittent rain all day.

So as a form of compensation I will do a "Beal Buff "on one just to see the effect, and satisfy my own curiosity as well.

Regards Rob

So Amelia is now missing a sander as well!

Moonlighting with the weather bureau...  

you reporting/recording 240mm of rain?

 by using the cork backing gripping the concrete driveway. 

Have you tried/heard_of a hybrid of rubber/cork?

(1.5mm and 3mm)... Don't ask... I'm just telling you about it.

If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD

Living down under, though Queensland is encroaching on expatriatism , wouldn't that negate the principle of DS tape?
