Concave curved, I should mention. The convex, I can go over with the sander in all but a few places.
There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

Hey, looks like the This Old House in Silverlake is putting in inlay in the same pattern mine is!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Tsk, tsk, Dinosaur comics. Gay couples reproduce too.

Wait, mine is fancier. Heehee! See? [link]

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Wow, that is some fancy inlay.

It's in both rooms on the first floor. No inlay upstairs. But yeah, I love it. One corner is a little rough and someday I'll probably want to replace some boards, but I'm going to preserve/replicate it when the time comes.

Because books.
Dremel Rotary Tool for the curved bits, sara? I want one so much, even though it scares me a little. I loved my Black and DeckerMouse Sander, too, but then it broke.

Overkill for the kind of sanding I'm doing. If I were using it to take off paint, sure. But I'm just smoothing the surface, as stain will cover the variations in color. And probably would require more fine motor skills than I have.

My TOH obsession totally paid off tonight. Learned things I can use! Including options that don't involve drilling into the foundation if I ever wanted to put in a full bath in the basement (I have a flush, so existing sewer connection down there, but to put in a shower or tub...)
eta: it must be spring, weather notwithstanding. I've got more energy for this sort of thing than I've had since October.

Get the dremel, Sara! You can use it for something else in the future!
Jenny Shimizu. Hey, she's good friends with an old buddy of mine. I've lost touch with her these past few years but, um, way back when, they were buds. Says she's very down to earth.
she's so hot. I knew exactly who you were talking about. Mmm. She was even on an ep of tip model once!!
