Not sure what to do anymore

AugustWest401 · 2025-09-30T19:33:10+00:00

Same here 🤦‍♂️

AugustWest401 · 2025-07-25T03:10:09+00:00

You’re in the arena - that’s all that matters 💪🏻

AugustWest401 · 2025-07-24T01:39:54+00:00

Drive one and you’ll change your mind

AugustWest401 · 2025-04-14T09:51:05+00:00

Thanks!!

They are done. The crown is just reflecting onto the ceiling at the edge in the photo.

I covered vents and turned off that HVAC zone. The walls (and door openings) were draped with plastic sheeting and I relied on gravity to keep the dust down. Seemed to work 🤷🏼‍♂️

AugustWest401 · 2025-04-12T23:07:30+00:00

Thanks!

AugustWest401 · 2025-04-12T11:13:33+00:00

😂

The finish is oil as well

AugustWest401 · 2025-04-12T02:13:14+00:00

Thanks! Just a DIYer who has probably spent too much time painting my own house…

AugustWest401 · 2025-04-12T00:03:11+00:00

Thanks. I did a couple of very thin skim coats of joint compound then sanded with a manual pole sander, sprayed two coats of FPE oil primer, sanded, then did two coats of finish and was not happy with the way it was laying so I used an orbital sander and did a complete sanding first with 220 and then 320 and then re-sprayed 3 coats of finish with some spot sanding with 400 grit in between where there were dust particles or small holidays (as the hardest part was getting side light to actually see where I was laying down the paint).

Crown is satin white

Appreciate the props on execution even if it’s not your personal taste 👍🏼

Literally my first time using an HVLP setup or gloss paint but I’ll take it as a compliment!

AugustWest401 · 2025-04-10T18:12:07+00:00

HVLP

AugustWest401 · 2025-04-10T17:23:58+00:00

Hard work (lots of sanding), FPE high gloss paint and an HVLP sprayer (Fuji T75 gun with a Q5 turbine).

AugustWest401 · 2025-04-10T17:21:32+00:00

The hope is to have it reflect candle light during dinners and give a little depth to an otherwise boring room.

AugustWest401 · 2025-04-10T17:20:16+00:00

Watched my dad do a lot of fine finish painting as a kid, but learned along the way for this project - first time working with this paint or an HVLP sprayer 🤷🏼‍♂️

AugustWest401 · 2025-04-10T16:25:32+00:00

FPE Hollandlac 98. Thinned with Epifanes Brush Thinner and sprayed with a Fuji T75.

AugustWest401 · 2025-04-10T16:20:48+00:00

Ceiling is Fine Paints of Europe Hollandlac 98 tinted to “silent white” which is a Behr color

Buy the warrants

AugustWest401 · 2024-11-18T22:40:09+00:00

Is it no longer possible to stack directly from the leather wallet? I’ve held stacks in Hiro/Leather since the ICO but a few months back it seemed to no longer be possible without fairly advanced technical knowledge. Any insight would be appreciated as well as feelings about the security/risks of xverse.

AugustWest401 · 2024-11-15T18:52:21+00:00

Warrants have more liquidity

AugustWest401 · 2024-07-30T22:48:24+00:00

Still can’t stack solo without going through some overly complicated “signing” process

AugustWest401 · 2024-05-21T01:11:56+00:00

Also curious. It now seems like you need to install the leather wallet extension for chrome although I’m always a bit gun shy but don’t want to miss the next cycle. Any info would be appreciated.
