Assembling an IKEA flat pack this week. I have done alot of these over the years of every shape size and description. Having hex fittings for the standard IKEA bolts for my impact driver helps speed things up alot. So if you need some speedy construction of your Swedish furniture get in touch.

Finished some stairs this week with a final coat of hard wearing stair paint, white and taupe. The customer preferred to have a none carpeted solution as they have dogs. The multiple layers of varnish and paint on the stairs meant using a hard wax oil wouldn't have given a quality even finish. This approach meant a good sand, a sealing primer then the stair paint.
