Refinishing a 185k: Work in Progress Wednesday
11:00:00 AMSpring in Chicago, and all the joys I mean, thunderstorms, it brings.
While the weather yo-yos up and down and the barometric pressure follows, I sit patiently waiting with my Singer 185k parts in a state of readiness - waiting to be primed and painted...
I spent last weekend while the kids played in the yard cleaning up the deck, moving all of our patio furniture out of our unheated garage and setting up a make-shift painting station for myself in said garage so that I can at least be ready for painting when and if I can ever get 3 or 4 days here in Chi-town where the humidity is optimal and the temperature stays above 55F.
I have about an hour or so more of sanding to do on the main machine and a good scrub and I'm ready to tape and prime.
>>drums fingers<<
My goal is to finish sanding tonight and tomorrow night after the kids go to bed and have it ready for paint for Saturday, if the weather holds.
I'll update when I can finally start painting...

What color are you painting it? I liked the green.
ReplyDeleteI hope you check back here Missy, because all of the sudden your profile is a no-reply blogger!
DeleteI'm keeping the color a secret for now - partly because I haven't honestly completely decided 100% yet on it and because what I think I want I'm still trying to source! Heheh thanks for asking!
I ♥ to hear from you!
