So today I'm working on my side project with the beautiful sinker redwood top. I dodged the bullet and mostly missed the hideous CA staining that can come from a binding job. I did the shellac seal and still got this wicking staining...
I manged to sand back (mostly) to kill the staining and then took a break to eat lunch. I had a grilled cheese sandwich grilled with butter. I did not wash my hands well afterwards. I came back and continued my binding trimming work and then I notice this hand print on my top. Three fingers and a thumb imprint. Oh man. I'm tellin'n ya, the way to disaster is just one grilled cheese sandwich away. I would send pictures, but the hand imprint is subtle, but the point is: Just when you think every disaster is thought of, you learn a new lesson. Who would have thought a simple thing like a sandwich would mar my top? Learning the hard way.
