Reply to "What did you do on your layout today?"

Pretty good day of work today. I went back and countersunk a bunch of the fascia screws, then got out the Spackle and filled them in. I sanded some of the Spackle that I had done last week.

When I installed the piece on the left, I didn't get a perfect fit. That left a funny little corner that needed to be filled. At first I thought I was going to have to break out the Bondo to fix this, but I cut a sliver of Masonite and glued it in.

After some sanding, it looks like it's going to work out nicely. Clean it up with a little Spackle, done!

Lots of holes to fill.

When Patrick was here a few weeks ago, we ended up with this height mismatch. The solution is to raise the curved section on the left a half inch, and lower the straight section on the right a half inch. Now the plan is Patrick will be here on Sunday. We'll fix it then.

Here's the other end of the curved section.

I did get a start on that project, by lowering the piece on the right a quarter inch.

This is where the straight section starts.

More Spackle. The gray look comes from adding black paint to tint it. If it gets scratched it won't show white on a field of black.

Should look sharp when I get it sanded and painted.
