I haven't been for a little bit, fishing that is. I think My sweetheart thinks I'm a work-a-holic in my not so healthy older age. Been putting off this project as I knew the work it would take. The project??? you ask. Putting in a wood floor in the front bath of a 30 year old mobile home.
First off, it's tight quarters, then the sub-floor, though solid, has some dips and sways, LOL. Way over my head and budget to rip it out and re-do it, replace it. So I got some Versa-Tech floor leveling compound...hahaha. close to 80* in the morning at 7AM when I started. Mixed as directed...Moved bucket to work area and instead of the 15-20 minutes work time, It kicked off and unusable in 5 min. with no saving it. There went 3/4 of a bag of mix.
Second batch I made a bit more soupy than a pancake batter and at least got it on the floor and pretty much spread even before it kicked off. Currently taking a break from using 50 grit sand paper and a scraper I'm using to take down the high spots I created when moving the compound around. As long as my knees, back, and arms hold out, I should get this part done this evening.
Now in the Morning, I'm going to the marina docks at the State Park on Lake Pomme De Terre and see if I can drown a jig or two...Then Pick back up where I left off on Saturday...Stay safe ya'all, enjoy, Tight lines and full Limits...Eric
