Tonight I put the first coat of polyurethane on the inside edges of the door frames. Finishing work is kind of like watching paint try, except serious mistakes can be very hard to fix (or even ruin a project). Yep, still looks pretty much the same, though if you look closely you can see the shine of the wet finish on the edges.

Tomorrow I’ll sand lightly and apply the second coat of polyurethane (and it’ll look pretty much exactly the same in the picture). But if all goes well, I’ll be able to start assembling doors this weekend.

That will be a good thing, as we are excited to have family coming in to visit and staying with us. Since I work mostly in the evenings, I’ll be doing quiet things in the workshop for a while with my great-niece sleeping just up through the ceiling of the workshop.
