Decorative Vase

A decorative vase is a great addition to any home or office. I like collecting small and big vases. 

I got these three vases at our local Dollar Tree store for a dollar each. Pretty neat isn't it?!

If you like to build things around the house or you have your own construction or manufacturing business, you need to be able to invest in the proper tools and equipment. Although they may be a big investment at first it is still an essential investment because these tools and equipment can help you produce quality products. Precision measuring tools such as mitutoyo 500-196-20 are important in maintaining the accuracy and reliability of the products that you will produce. Once you have all the proper tools and equipment, you have to make sure that those who use them know how to use each tool properly. These tools should never be used as substitute for other tools. Using them for other purposes aside from their original purpose can affect their accuracy. This will have an effect on the quality of the products that your company will produce. Each personnel should also clean each tool after use and if they notice that there is something wrong with the tool, they must immediately be repaired. Regular calibration should also be conducted to ensure that each precision measuring tool works perfectly. Tools that have been used for a long time need to be checked from time to time to avoid problems with their quality.

Stain A deck

My husband and I stained our deck last weekend. We're pretty satisfied with the outcome. We're glad we did it ourselves instead of hiring a person to do the job for us.
BEFORE
AFTER

The following step by step and tips is what we followed during the process.

Preparing Your Deck for Staining
  • Remove as many items as you can (planters, hoses, outdoor furniture, light fixtures) and cover other items (steps, plants, sidewalks/paths) with drop cloths.
  • Examine the deck for surface wear, cracked boards, and popped nails.
  • Make any necessary repairs before you stain your deck.
Applying the Stain Decks are often subjected to extreme environmental conditions (direct sun, cool damp shade, etc.) as well as heavy foot traffic. Proper care of your deck will help ensure the longevity of the finish.
Step 1 After properly preparing the wood, select an inconspicuous place on the actual wood you will be staining and test the stain to be sure you will be pleased with the final color results.
Step 2 First stain the vertical sections of the deck, such as the rails and posts, so that drips will not land on previously finished areas.
Step 3 Once the vertical surfaces are completed, proceed to the deck surface. For deck boards, stain two to three boards at a time to avoid lap marks. Do not stop in the middle of a board, or you will risk developing lap marks. Make sure to wipe up any excess stain.
Deck-Staining Tips 
  1. The best way to apply deck stain is to use a roller or spray, followed by backbrushing to even out the stain.
  2. Do not let stain puddle on the surface of the deck. 
  3. Stain does not stay mixed the same way paint does. You will need to stir the stain frequently during application.
  4. To ensure proper stain penetration and even drying results, avoid applying stain in direct sunlight.
