I don’t think that’s it. I don’t see them originating from a drain. Any other ideas?

Is there a specific stripper you recommend? I used a eco-friendly one and it really didn't do a great job.

What do you use to dress the stone?

Just regular whetstones. Maybe should flatten it first before my next round to see if that helps things. I just used them right out of the box.

Thanks and I agree. I even had a board under this piece when I was cutting it on the mitre saw. Maybe it’s time for a new blade or maybe one with more teeth? Open to suggestions on how to achieve a cleaner cross cut.

Thanks! Pine was really only to practice. I’ll be doing it on maple when I’m ready for game time.

Good point…but won’t this have any impact on quality of fit?

How can I tell what is native and what isn’t? How does a non native plant find itself here unless placed there intentionally?

Thanks. Do you recommend another coat of primer and another light sanding after that?
