07 - Getting Ready to Paint

November 18, 2019


Painting Started this week.

I live in Montana, USA.  If you look at the date and expect that it's cold, you're right!

That means that painting outside can't happen, so instead Reef and I set up a makeshift Paint Booth in a Garage.  (Maybe some day we'll have an armor making warehouse . . . with a ventilated paint room and automotive level sprayer . . . ah, the dream!)
























We used some parts from an old desk.  The drawers hold our pain supplies.  A piece of plywood on that with a tarp hung in a u-shape will hopefully keep the mess to a minimum.  The old desk top on some sawhorses is acting as a drying table.

The garage has heat, which will help a lot, especially since we need to keep fresh (yet cold) air circulating through.  Paint fumes are toxic, so BE CAREFUL!
