Before you know it you will be making furniture! Great job!

[@old_school_moaboa]

That would be so fun! But first I have like a hundred to repair and restore. To afford to fill these 12 rooms I have bought furniture with lots of potential but not quite ready to put to use ;-)

Beautiful trim work. Love the curved trim technique - that will look so nice when painted :)

[@old_school_moaboa]

It's getting there :-)

[@Rocklyn277]

You’re amazing, love how you manage the rounded corner on skirting and cornice. Well done best wishes from Australia

[@old_school_moaboa]

Thank you, I will fill the empty space with lime mortar and paint it with the white paint, so it will look tidier 😁

Watching you strip, scrape and sand back the skirtings took me back to doing exactly the same task years ago. The paint stays in all the tiny cracks and crevices. Yet again seeing your meticulous work was delightful. Very well done and best wishes, also from Australia.

You always do a great job! Thank you for sharing!

[@old_school_moaboa]

I am glad you like it :-)

[@Anne-yw6ed]

Such an inspiration!

[@old_school_moaboa]

Thank you :-)

[@Vanessa-pl3br]

Sometimes it works well (the "ground" skirting board is awesome!) and sometimes it does not! (I'm sure you will find a solution!)

[@old_school_moaboa]

Yes, it sure does :-)

[@olofholmgren]

Att lister kan vara så vackra och skänka en sådan karaktär till vägg och rum!

[@old_school_moaboa]

Eller hur? :-)

why dont you wear a mask 😔 the paint when you heat it dangerious for your health

[@old_school_moaboa]

It's risk free when you use the speedheater, I should wear when I sand it after though. But not when removing the paint with infrared light. Fumes and vapor from the paint has been proven by science is not dangerous, according to the company's website. Bear in mind, they don't name their reference. speedheater.com/en/manuals-guides/faq/
