Another kind of slow day. I started off the morning by going to the bank up in Franklin, then visiting two Lowe’s stores, the same number of Home Depots, and a Sherwin Williams. All trying to get some reliable information about paint. I also bought some chisels and a protractor at Home Depot. After lunch I went by Big Box and ordered more cabinets and vanities. Back at the house I uncovered my cedar and ogled it for a while. They are pretty nice boards. I installed a couple more deadbolts using my new chisels and mortising device. The latter is very neat. When my dad arrived we started priming the shiplap in the apartment. I really wasn’t happy with the quality that we were getting from brushes and rollers, so we drove down to Pulaski and got a sprayer at Home Depot. We also bought the tile for two bathrooms. We had dinner at a buffet there in town before driving back to the farm.
