Now that all the medical equipment is gone from the front room, we decided to sand and restain the wood floor before putting all the furniture back. It's been down for 55years, so it's well over due.
I was going to use the belt saner but it is a bit small, and the 3 belts we had are unused and old. They lasted a few seconds each. It has been in the cupboard for years, and I've never used it because that would mean I've done some woodwork. It turns out that the belts are an odd size and are order only, and I want to get the job done soonest.
So I broke out my 7" sander/polisher and managed to do all but about 2m˛ before the bloody thing died. And it's the bit by the door that will always be visible. So much for finishing the sanding today and staining the floor tomorrow.
July is turning into a really crap month
