Is it possible to sand a floor to 400-600 grit? I may have to look for a different solution. Thanks for your help though.
Scott,
I reread your post and wonder what grit to sand as the last coat goes on???
Well, it looks like Waterlox is going to be an expensive operation. It looks great, and I bet it will look Fantastic when complete.
Thanks for the help.

I put down solid red oak floors (about 730sqft). I hired out the sanding because fo time crunch. Adrian drum sanded to 100 grit. I have never sanded a floor, but it looked pretty good to me.

Duct Tape........... Press on, Pull off
I almost soiled myself just looking at it,,,,,,,,,,,,
Denis,
I bet that after 60 days you'll find the high gloss will "settle down" a great deal. Best of luck with your project. I hope we'll see some pictures of it when you get it how you want it....
I just recently found out something very interesting about using the FS Original.
I built a new cross-cut sled and made the fences out of QSWO. I sanded them down to 220, then brushed on two...
Now THAT is how to recycle!!!! Excelent vision and follow though. Very nice work.
Thanks for the reminder Howard. I have a 4" pipe from my router table to the cyclone. Dust collection is pretty good, but I think I'll revisit the respirator. I think the cartrages might need...
Good Input guys!!! Wood for the bases and Kilz for the primer. Got it, Thanks, Ken
I'm planning on making my own moulding, for a rental I'm buying, out of MDF. I can cut them on the router table. My question is, after running them thru the router, a slightly rough finish is left....
Rod,
I think alot of us are following this thread. I for one am going to try this on Saturday. Blade drift sucks!!
Mr. Ewell,
I got a "woodie" :D seeing your setup!!!! I literally stand in a shower of dust when using the jig. I am moving this to the front of the line of projects. Thanks for letting me see...
+1 for Rip, Route, and Glue
+1 for dyes. I never use pigment stains at all anymore.
+1 for the 4212 and two PC690's. I just used mine today and was thinking how glad I got it instead of spending alot of money on something I'd have to replace later. Go for it, you wont be sorry.

I just went through this.
#1) Blade
#2) Blade tension
#3) Blade drift
#4) Feed rate
After addressing all of these, I'm back in business.
Good lUCK... kEN
Fred,
Do you use any type of filter before it goes into the piping??? I'm considering using the pleaded filters as opposed to the fiberglass filters. I think the pleated would catch much more...
My thought was that several "pleated furnace filters", put in front of the inlet of the dust collector at the top of the booth, would catch all the overspray before it even entered the DC piping. ...
I was going to make enough small projects that it would be cost effective to spray the finish. My I was wondering..... If I built a booth about 36"HX36"WX24"D and put the connection to the cyclone...
Tomorrow morning I'm headed to VA for the holiday. My daughter lives just outside Lynchburg. Does anyone know of a woodworking must-see in the area. I love the grandkids and the excitment, but I...
I went to HD and found some "shower pan". It's a rubber material you put down before you put down tile. I've had it on my bench since I got it. You can spill glue on it, and after it dries, you...
Brett,
Well Done!!! The differnet woods sure raise the interest factor through the roof. You keeping them or are they out the door procjects???.... That would be a though one.
