Tony, was the Bill Bryson worth the read-hype ? Dom

Very pretty, good job Dom

Thank you for taking the time to explain that to me Steve, must admit I had my doubts as to your being able to explain it over the telephone,or me being able to understand, but you did it. If your forthcoming DVD is that clear and concise it'll be a winner. Dom

Okay didn't want to do this, but for the greater good and BigMac here is a picture of my first, well actually my second project, the first was, believe it or not a coffee table. So if I could do that as a hobbyist, about 30 years ago, wife has just told me it was 27 years, then so can you.

As Nola said Caustic. Bucket of water, add the caustic well dissolved brush on ( if you want to open the grain use a wire brush) leave for an hour or saw then jet wash off thoroughly. Leave to dry, again thoroughly, and wax. Bootiful Oh, do all of this before you lay the floor. Dom
