  1. I love starting new things. Right after I finish all the others I’ve started.
    A few thoughts on the new post about why tying things off matters more than starting strong.

  2. The only thing worse than smooth motion on TV's everywhere, is that COMBINED with improper framerate conversion. Just use Davinci Resolve to do those framerate conversions kids.

  3. A concept for life in genreal, not just coding. – Douglas

    The Art of Finishing via Bytedrum [Shared]

    “It’s a quiet Saturday afternoon. I’ve carved out a few precious hours for coding, armed with a steaming cup of coffee and the familiar urge to dive into a project. As I settle into my chair and open my terminal, I’m confronted with a challenge that’s become all too familiar: deciding which of my many unfinished projects to tackle.

    I navigate to my project directory, greeted by a graveyard of half-implemented ideas and stalled works-in-progress. Each one represents a different problem I’ve tried to solve, a different technology I’ve attempted to master. They’re all interesting, each with its own purpose and potential. But as I scan through them, I can already feel my enthusiasm waning.

  4. First coats of Total Boat Halcyon on the #coffeetable. I’m planning 2 coats of amber gloss followed by a coat or 2 of clear satin. Water based, easy to apply, and looks great so far.

  5. Been applying a wipe-on finish to a chair project.

    The nitrile gloves I've been wearing have literally been filling up with sweat in the warm (80+ F) temps. Literally had sweat drip out of the gloves and on to the chair

    I have some cotton BBQ gloves (aka glove liners) I got for other uses. So I tried wearing those under the nitrile gloves.

    It worked! No puddles of sweat.

    So, if you have sweaty hands under nitrile gloves giving you problems, try cotton inner gloves to absorb the sweat.

    Don't know if anyone else will find this useful or not.

    Doubt that I'm the first to do this.

  6. Mom and I picked out a mat color and a frame kit and got a piece of glass cut. So my job tonight was to cut the mat, sign the piece and put it all together. Pretty pleased with it. Used some left over cardboard to make a rough box for it. #WaterColor #watercolopainting #frame #mat #finishing

  7. My degree is a Bachelor of Science in Project Management, but I also graduated from college 20 years late and $65,000 over budget.

  8. Trying out some new powder coat paint today! Came out a bit darker than expected, but it's still quite juicy.

  9. "My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far I've finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake. I feel better already." — Dave Barry — — — #DaveBarry #quote #quotes #quip #therapy #finishing #humor #funny #humorous #joke #complete #attitude

  10. @lockwood Same advise as Jami Gibs. Have done it many times on elderly tops. My favourite oil is Hardwax Oil from Chestnut. Be careful, do it fast - wipe and polish at once! I use it on both refurbished and new tabletops. This one is twosome of same plank glued together.
    Edit: Does not look veneered to me but if – take care. My quess it's floorplanks glued together with stain on to make it look like hardwood. Thats why the worn spot…
