Stained the wood!

 The kit is ready now, all wood is stained. I made a mix of 50% darkgrey, 25% lightgrey and 6% mahonie. The latter is the strong colour, after drying it is still a little reddish.

The test; right darkgrey, left my mix:


Workspace; kitchen. With special permission from the wife!:

This morning they where ready to be sorted and packed:


So far ready for the build! This way the pieces are way more easy to identify:


Stay tuned for the build coming weekand have a good sunday!

And made the sachets into liquid stain. Ready for use!



Very easy to make. Just 250 ml warm water and add the powder from one sachet. Stir it, let it cool down and it is ready to use.


Stain!

 Stain has arrived. Its powder that you have to dissolve in hot water. So now I have to find me a small pan to do that. Because my wife will kill me if I take one of hers! :)
