Nice! I had my buddy spray all the cabinets with his hplv. Crazy how little paint it takes with that thing and how smooth is comes out.
What did you accomplish today?

Yeah, this one heats, so no moisture or oil is in the air. And the warm paint levels nice.

SW is great stuff. I worked on a res/commercial crew for about two years and that's mostly what we used. The emerald paints nice. They also have a washable flat I like.

I had a local door shop order my doors and prehung them. They showed up with unprimed jambs. I was fucking pissed man. Like i need to ask for primed jambs? Fucking retards. Had to take the doors apart. Prime the jambs then back together and so on. Fucking stupid. Who the fuck would want un primed jambs on their prehung doors.

He's going to talk with the local SW guy. It's where I told him to go. Only thing I'm doing is spraying. It's his house project.....I gotta big job that needs to get out of the shop. So lol hopefully I'm not sanding. Although I'd be making pretty good money to sand......and that's one of those tasks I like to be high for......kinda like painting and mudding lol

and man does it take allot more work sanding. The other stuff is the bomb. High build. Drys quick and sands way easy. That’s if you’re painting over paint grade wood. If over other wood he’ll probably want to go with the preprite. Don’t ask how i know this shit because i hate paint.

Knowing him it's probably the more expensive higher tech coating. It's probably also cabinet grade mdf. It's been his project because I was out with covid so the shop wasn't being used. And when I'm there I have a big stainless job that needs to get finished and shipped. I haven't kept up on paint in about the last 4 years.

Just kidding. Can you tel i’m fucked up yet?
but really i sware i, and allot of other heads in my trade are better welders than the iron workers not that i would want to do their job. I would challenge them to stick weld our light shit to theirs like we also have to do. None of them accepted the challenge.
i’m sure you are a bad ass welder i’m just fucking around. I was certified with 60 series rod down to 18 ga which is the lightest you can certify. All welds all positions etc. also certified at one time up to 3/4 plate. I can’t wait to buy a new machine so bad. Soon. Prob not just a buzz box though. Never did stainless. I never got into tig. I want to though

Mmmmm, donuts!!Get ready for some fucked up drunken posts from me. The combo of paint, beer and buds kinda does it to me. And then this shit! Holy smokes. Where you really need a good wood filler. This shit gets you high as fuck! (If you put your nose in it)
View attachment 5093271
That's the good filler, and when / if it starts to dry out, a little lacquer thinner will bring it right back.
Damn I just got a drunken call from my brother...After 45 minutes I had enough, and did the old "I have a call I have to take...see ya". At least your drunken posts are interesting!! The house is looking great!!

I haven't stick welded in a bunch of years. But I'm sure it'd be like riding a bike.
I do mostly tig with some mig here and there. Welding is only part of what I do though

Tig. Wish I had the front profile of this next one to show you how thin it is.
Tig. Blind aluminum.

Oh i bet. And that’s bad ass i hope you know i’m just fucking around.I can weld
But. You ever try to weld 20ga overhead. If we’re welding to the iron workers thick shit we’re usually welding 16ga. It is kind of an art.
We certify arc welding and when you pick up a wire feed you can do that shit behind your back lol. Damn i kinda miss working my trade.
