I put that little chore off for quite awhile but finally had to get it done. I did wear a mask and a big apron. I did them by hand sanding versus using a little drum sander to remove the char. I was afraid of breakage while removing the char and then shaping them.Jan
Good morning Jan. I really don’t like removing char so well done— they look good. Cheers Grant
Yup, it was a bit of a chore, but the resulting product was a vastly improved amd more to scale set of oars.
