Subject: Re: Monday Chat 06.27.11 by teebee on 2011/6/27 13:39:43 Morning guys....I wish it would rain here. I hear you guys talking about it, complaining really, and here we sit, dry and hot. Supposed to be in the 100's all week and the wind is blowing already. Brad I agree with Bill, SS or ceramic coated is the only way to go. Is the framework treated lumber? If so there is part of the answer, the chemicals they use to treat it is very corrosive to steel. Even my deck, made from redwood, has affected the screws that I used. SS next time or ceramic coated. I haven't been on a jet ski in years, sounds like fun. Don, Sunday was just recovery day from Saturday it sounds to me. Several years ago I built footstools for each of the girls. I did the upholstery work as well. A woodworker I am, an upholsterer...not as much. All three of the stools and one that I made for myself were showing signs of problems. So I figured a way to repair them for good. Foam rubber padding was bought Saturday. So yesterday I proceeded to start the repairs. On two of the stools the repair was fairly simple. On the third one the outer soft covering was bad as well. It took two hours to remove the soft coverings, and although I was wearing gloves, I ended up with two huge blisters (one about the size of two quarter laying side by side), both of which wore the skin clear off. So now my hand is in a not so fun state. |
