This woodwork took some time to get right. Padding down with high grade paper is the 🔑 to this finish.

Enjoyed this one. Colours used: ‘Feather Down’ on the walls & ‘Cloud White’ on the woodwork.

He was in the queue in front of me for a sea plane in the Maldives back in 2019.

You’ve not mentioned that one in ages.

More glossing over in a week than I’ve managed to do in the last ten years.

Yes.

There is a particular process to finishing MDF. You can’t just paint it and job done. High grade sanding between coats with meticulous inspection is required to be able to achieve a high quality finish.

I know there is a lot going on, but any chance of doing Mystery Hour tomorrow?
@mrjamesob.bsky.social @lbc.co.uk
You’ve never mentioned that before.

When it comes to trades, it’s about the reward for the ability to deliver unattended.

When I started out as a apprentice scenic carpenter, I was on £2:80 an hour. Fully trained carpenters were on around £15 an hour & I understood why this was. This was back in 2002.

I decided to go self-employed so I could listen to your show everyday without interruption. 😉

I’m old enough to remember when you couldn’t stop saying ‘discombobulated’…
Alas.

‘Restoration’ provides comfort on its own. It makes me think that someone was once there before you. You can rebuild & restore what was once there.
