The Home Depot expert said the wood stain on the floor should be removed. Suggested stripper. Bad idea! Smell was bad. It only did a fair job. Smell is gone. Put a fan in room and opened windows. Flooded area with water, scrubbed and vacuumed. All dry now.
Also conditioned last of trim. Will prime floor today and stain trim as well. Hoping to put paint down tomorrow and Sunday.
theres 9 gallons of stuff under the workbench and that doesnāt include the wall paint.

The flooring "expert" in Home Depot was probably selling garden supplies yesterday.
Spent most of my day building an assembly table for my wood shop. Try to finish tomorrow after I mow.
Rained this morning and the sun popped out about 1pm. Slight wind and it dried things real quick. About 3 I was able to mow my hayfield/lawn. The temps have been in the 90's for the last 5 days and rain at night, I mowed on Sunday and it already needed it on Monday. I also do my 2 neighbors lawns and got done abot 6:30. Got something to eat and looked out and it was clouding over again. Got one hell of storm about 8 with hail. I don't know how my flowers and garden are doing. Guess I will find out in the morning.
Add this to your weather apps.

They have possible lightning and thunder in the forecast late tonight or tomorrow.
Last couple days the high was about 70, today 64, tomorrow rain, possible thunder, possibility of hail and high of 59.

Looking good Tom. How's your weather? Curious if the product you are using needs ventilation.
Our tomatos have survived so far.
That is exactly what we got yesterday. Rain, sun long enough for me to mow, rain and hail, more sun. Sunny right now, so who knows.

First coat down. Second coat tomorrow. Next weekend primer for the walls. Then final color. In the meantime, my lawn looks awesome but itās growing so fast because weāre getting rain every other day! Lots of mowing. Well, my blood sugar is down!

I have the 2 windows open. Itās low voc and honestly I didnāt really smell it.
weather is 81 and cloudy. Had sunshine earlier. No rain predicted. Going to wait till tomorrow to put on 2nd coat. Considering a top coat but there appears to be a few crap products out there. Maybe Iāll let it go with 2 coats in the satin.
I can walk on it now. Going to close windows down to an inch so humidity doesnāt pour in
Built an assembly table. Not pretty but functional. Mostly built from scrap. Lumber yard doesn't have much wood.
Cramped in my shop. Moved from a 28 x 28 building to 1/2 a garage. Many of my tools are under benches
nice band saw. That fence on that table saw looks kind of familar.
Thanks for the fence. Still have not got my big table saw moved. Weighs about 750 lbs. Can't even hire anyone to move it.

That big bandsaw is a 16" 2 speed Craftsman. I also have a 12" variable speed Grizzly and a 1950s model 10" Craftsman. The grizzly is about wore out and they don't sell parts for it. No one else sells a 12" variable speed.
I had a 12" Jet. I bought it for one job, then sold it because I don't have the space. Bought it on sale and got paid about what it cost.
What's worn on the Grizzley? Variable speed sounds neat.
The drive wheel is worn out. Like most of their stuff it was made in China and only available for a short time. The variable speed really comes in handy.
Always wished for a shop with a lathe and milling machine. With those you could fix it. Saw a video where a guy builds his own tools. He had a band saw and I think the wheels were plywood.
