WOODWORK FLOORS FURNITURE Refinishing Woodwork, Floors and Furniture Rizpah A . Douglass Because of shortages of materials and lack of labor and time, many families have not made needed repairs around the house. Even though most farm families will still be exceedingly busy, some of the needed materials may soon be available again, the refinishing of woodwork, floors or furniture will doubtless be given an important place in home activities and the directions that follow will prove useful. General Directions for Refinishing Woods Remove old finish. Best results are obtained when all the old finish is removed, especially if the finish is in a poor condition. The main objects are to remove it without injuring the wood and with as little labor as possible. Commercial paint and varnish remover may be more expensive but it is less likely to injure the wood than is home-made remover. Commercial removers are inflammable. Do not use them in a closed room or around a fire.

The proceeds from this little eBook will be put aside so he has a better childhood than I did. 10 years and 1 month ago, I started a new job as a floor sanding professional. I received no training at all, I was just put on the tools and that was it. I hated it for the first 3 years. My boss had told me that he had been doing it for 7 years when he had only been doing it for 4 months. We were making every mistake imaginable, and there were a lot of mistakes to make. He did have a good attitude towards learning though: try everything and see what works best. Like many people, I found mastery and then passion, not the other way round. It is a profession that comes with a lot of job satisfaction.

  • Refinishing Outer Wood Paneling of the Simpson Strong Tie Building
    Refinishing Outer Wood Paneling of the Simpson Strong Tie Building Isidoro Amalfitano Cal Poly San Luis Obispo San Luis Obispo, CA This paper outlines the refurbishment of the exterior wood panels located on the Simpson Strong Tie Building on the Cal Poly San Luis Obispo campus. This project focuses on the two large 50 square foot wooden panels that act as an exterior skin for the Simpson Strong Tie Building. This project is an individual project that was broken up into 4 phases. This paper will cover all 4 phases of the refurbishment process. These phases include the removal, sanding, staining and reapplication of wood panels onto the Simpson Strong Tie Building. Furthermore, this paper will go in depth about the building permit process and the struggles experienced communicating with the owner and architect during the preconstruction phase. Many struggles had to be overcome during the refurbishment process such as managing a project on an active campus, as well the refurbishment process itself. There were many unforeseen conditions that were experienced during the construction phase due to inadequate project details from the architect, OMNI Design Group. The purpose of this project is to give back to the Cal Poly San Luis Obispo Construction Management Department by refurbishing the weathered and aesthetically unappealing exterior wooden panels on the Simpson Strong Tie Building. Key Words: Wood Panels, Refurbishment, Weathered, Unforeseen Conditions, Cal Poly Introduction This project is located in Building 187 on the Construction Management courtyard at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. This building is used as a demonstration lab for various lab-based classes that the Construction Management program has to offer.
