Re: Time for some longhorn love, show pics

yes sir, out on the farm with a mix of dad's old tools and some disposable harbor freight stuff and 70+ yo mom's help.. couldn't have done it without her!

she brushed, I rolled, we flipped, rinse repeat

she was my qc inspector and supervisor.. she isn't tall so she held the bolt heads down with a broom handle

planning to put my kids to work on this one.. taking week of thanksgiving off work to get it done..

needs wheel tubs and headboard or minor repairs at least so I'm trying to get motivated..

really was looking forward to painting this one but unanimously out voted by everyone..

that epoxy and varnish is tough stuff so gonna try not to be shy of using it like it was meant to be

if I had more time I'd knock it out for you, maybe when I'm retired.. I figure I'll make it about 6 mos before my new found time eats up my funds
