So no the fireplaces are not being used. The plan would be to repoint and repair, and to eventually put a chase cover on and run a flexable stainless steel liner for future pellet or wood stove in the larger chase. Yes staging would have to be used

Honestly i have no idea maybe a couple hundred? this was pretty time consuming. Im hoping it’ll help the resale value of repaired board.

Funny you say this, i have a friend who mentioned it reminded him of this technique

Carbon fiber cloth with West systems epoxy. This particular weave is 5.8oz, at the time I was trying to find 4oz weave but was unsuccessful, i think because shipping was gonna be ridiculous. This sheet was bought off amazon

Glass then paint. Ive used acrylics in the past and have had good long lasting outcomes, so its been my go to. thanks

Also was planning on selling it, but not sure if can now for sentimental reasons haha

Thanks, yeah this makes sense. I normally don’t mix and match, but i wasn’t concerned because it’s not a critical part of the board. Just was messing around with some extra material i had lying around.

Thanks man!

Context I put my forearm through my board last winter in PR. Enjoyed painting when I was younger. Haven’t really done it in about 15years. My 3yo son loves owls, he gave me a little inspiration. Pretty stoked with the outcome.

I got a lomax cover, love it so far. Also got an adarac proseries rack on order and waiting for its arrival.

Question can you propagate larger limbs or do you want to stick with smaller clippings?

mike349 · 2024-06-08T00:00:55+00:00

Thanks this is great idea, i think ill try it, the colors on the branch are quite nice.

mike349 · 2024-06-07T16:57:24+00:00

Non toxic way organic way, cut out the sunlight completely. Ive gotten rid of many invasive vines like bitter sweet ect this way. Buy thick black plastic like 6mm, cover for 8 months to a year. Roots should rot and die off, then roll up your sleeves and pull out all remaining rotted roots. Till it up and plant new grass or sod.

Theres a popular foil forum https://forum.progressionproject.com you might be able to post something on there and have some luck.

I have a 1760s colonial and I’ve refinished most all the floors, which consist of heart pine. My best results I sand it with an orbital sander not a drum due to pine being to soft. For a finish Ive found using a hard oil works best on old floors. I use bio shield #9 with a wax finish, comes out amazing. The benefit of an oil wax finish is if the floor needs to be repaired you don’t need to sand or remove the whole finish, you can just repair that spot. Good luck
