Restoration of an old skate rink

not a dime, didn't even bother apologizing for it.

 

A real manager world apologize and refund you or give you credit or the next toll you need rented free.

 

That floor will be worth the effort. Great job!

 

floor is finished.

 

Looks fantastic!!

 

Definitely looks great.


Very nice work.


I'd be tempted to put on some skates for a couple of laps.

 

Very nice looking floor.

 

Looks great , when is moving day ?

 

strangely enough at almost 40 yrs old I decided i need to exercise a bit and decided roller blades would be easy on my knees and feet so for the last couple months i have been shuffling around in there trying to learn how to roller blade. sadly i blessed with some of the tiniest and weakest ankles known to mankind so i can only do about 10 minutes at a time.

 

not sure but all the lumber is being delivered thursday to build shelves, chain bench, and shipping bench. hopefully we can get the small electrical bits finished up this weekend as well as the shelves. if so that leaves just a bunch of small knick knack projects plus the one big one.....getting electric turned on. guessing another month and hopefully we will be starting the move

 

Looks great. Being commercial how many coats of Polly did you put, hopefully a lot.

 

1 coat of primer and 2 coats of clear. the clear is a 2 part water based with ceramic in it so 2 coats of it should be plenty.

 

Is it the Varthane?

 

Just asked cause I used water based Varthane stuff and it's not as scratch resistent as I had hoped. But it's just in the finish , Cause I used like 7 coats. I'm thinking it said it had ceramic?

 

at $125 a gallon + shipping and 4 gallons per coat, i would need to sell my first born to do 7 coats

 

Hope it's good!! That's way more than the stuff I got. It was only like $50/gal

 

lumber came for the shelves today. we had it delivered to the shop and loaded it on my little trailer that way we can carry it in the back door instead of the side door which means we wont have to carry it across the new floor. poor poor trailer, thankfully its only a short 1/2 mile trip out to the new building. 60 sheets of OSB and 130 2x4s on the poor little 3500lb trailer.

 

She might be overloaded!
