    If the 3rd coat in the shop did not turn out well, that was my backup plan. Cannot run the heater in the shop when finishing because fan blows dust. As far as open flame? As soon as I finished brushing on the 3rd coat of polyurethane, I took my torch and popped bubbles with it. I used to worry about it blowing up but apparently the smell is much worse than the vapor content in the atmosphere. I remember watching a mythbuster episode where they were trying to blow up a room full of air that had bug bombs going off in it. Turns out it takes a very specific, and high, ratio of explosive vapors to air before an explosion will occur. I have given myself many chances over the years to blow myself up but? And, most decent woodworkers I know use this method with a torch to pop bubbles.

    I know, I was just trying to have a little fun. Typically, it's oils such as boiled linseed that can self ignite given the right conditions. I poly'ed my stairs in my old house and it stunk to high heaven while it dried.

    That looks amazing! :)

    Sitting down to Thanksgiving dinner is going to be so satisfying after all that work.

    Cole's coach just text me and ask if we could get there early Thursday, one of the other coaches is going to work with Cole on getting the ball down a little while pitching. He does good he's just been struggling with getting it down some. They're playing for the 12U championship :broccoli:

    We are the #2 seed and play the #1 seed who won last night. We beat them last week 7-5, hopefully we can do it again.

    We took apart our Rivian frunk to put in some Hella SuperTones. A bit of electrical happened to get the wiring harness together. Now we have to make a bracket to hold the horns in place since the stock horns are a different fitment.
