Progress on the finish....cuz I don't have enough mdf...
Thanks again Dave. it is neat looking, almost burlish,,,:)
Tony, its nearing 800 pounds if ya add the motor and other metal parts. ~9 ea 80# bags so far..Two more to go...
I found that I need a few pieces of material (MDF) to finish up the forms for the foot and I am dying to hang the motor and other misc hardware so the logical conclusion was to seal it up so I can proceed with the final assembly of the motor and pulleys and stuff.
I can seal the foot later. I hope the pick up the materials tomorrow and place the concrete for the foot tomorrow night. I have a long weekend coming up...
Clear sealer it is! I really like the look of the concrete and I recruited a couple willing helpers to seal it up. I decided on a lacquer finish for it and I think it will do just fine.
Pics of tonight's progress are a must...
