    Default I'm new to woodwork :)

    Greetings

    Im a full timemum, and I've just started doing some furniture restoration.

    I've just stripped and polished a couple of secretaires. Fixed the drawers, patched the wood a bit and now I'm going to sell them....

    I now own 3 power tools: a sander, a jigsaw and a drill.

    So im kinda here for advice. (Getting it not giving it unless u want to know the best way to paint your nails or apply eyeshadow)

    My daughters are always asking me to paint their toenails and I always fail miserably. Might call on you for that advice!
