    Yes, oh yes, I'm glad you implied some crucial steps, like taking the hardware off before paint, and brush strokes too. Thumbs up for me, some other cats miss those steps

    I really like how quick and concise you are in explaining how you work. So many people have too long of explanations and video rambling.

      The number one reason I skip a video is the length of time it takes to get to the point. So thank you for your efficient, and excellent, presentations!

    Awesome job, as usual!!! 💚
    You ok with a helpful hint? I keep pieces of styrofoam on hand so if i need to paint heads of screws, i just stick them into the styrofoam so all heads are facing up. (Be sure to re-use the styrofoam on other projects!)
