Waldo's huge project

[Ironwood]

Looks great Waldo, its a real credit to you.

[Skew ChiDAMN!!]

Isn't it funny how a seemingly little thing like putting the drawers in can make such a BIG difference to the overall look?

You done good. But there's no rest for the wicked... there's the hutch to be done!

You done good.

With a fair bit from you mate.

But there's no rest for the wicked... there's the hutch to be done!

What hutch? Ahh but first I have to iron out the bugs and then and then... But I'm looking forward to it, looking at where the cabinet goes when it's all completed it's going to be a monster...

and weigh a tonne.

Mainly just standing back and asking: "Are you really sure that's the way you want to do that?"

[Waldo]

Gotta bounce things of something that talks back.

Thanks for the compliment Ironwood.

WOW

love the draws and the grain of the top.

[Waldo]

Thanks Gaza,

When I got the cube of spotted gum and after thicknessing the lot I sorted it out, the piece used for the drawers was especially singled out. There will be some magic pieces that will be used in the hutch/bookcase.

WOW

love the... the grain of the top.

Yeah, there have been two pair of hands that have loved caressing it, and they one of them wasn't mine, he even dribbled on it.

That is outstanding work, Waldo. I've enjoyed following the progress.

Your dad would be very proud.

[Waldo]

Thanks Tex, my Mum is down in 2 weeks so I'm keen for her to see it.

One other thing I really enjoyed using was the UBeaut Swansdown mop, never have I applied wax so quickly and beautifully.

I bought 1 of these not long ago & mounted in on my grinder. I didn't know you could also mount it in a hand held device? Well i'm guessing you used it in a hand held, can't see you holding the cabinet up to a buffing wheel rofl.
What sort of device did you mount it to?

[Waldo]

Rattrap, I threaded a bolt into the mop and used it on a drill. As per Uncle Neil's instructions on the piece of paper you get with the mop.

Anyone walking in when I was first using it must have thought I'd killed a goose, there was white stuff everywhere. And yep, I used 40 grit paper to take the initial fluff off.

[tea lady]

Hmm! Lovely.

[Woodworks]

Amazing work, nicely done.
I really like it.

Cheers, Gio

[Waldo]

Thanks Woodworks.

I've been ordered into the shed by SWMBO to finish the filing cabinet drawer. Oh well, a bloke has to do what a bloke has to do.
