Here I go with the carbide removing the bottom paint on Russlynn. Worked well with virtually no dust, big plus. Still labor intensive though a little less than the sander! Quite the work out as my buddy Hank puts it “strong like bull”Good times!!

The cold whether is a great time to tackle some of the boat work your looking to get done. Give me a call to set a plan in motion.

We just put our S2 11 meter on the hard ready for new hull paint and a new bottom down to the gel coat.  I’m first going to remove the layers of bottom paint down to the gel coat.  This process should take a few days of diligent work with the help of my good friend Hank!  Once the gel coat is exposed I’ll let it dry out over a few months then apply three barrier coats followed by a few coats of long lasting bottom paint.  While the bottom is drying out I’ll proceed to sand and repaint the hull and cleanup all the metal underneath and painting.

If you are looking to have similar work done I would be happy to meet with you and discuss.  With low overhead I’m quite affordable producing high quality results with high quality products.

I changed the packaging for my organic linseed oil soap.  Now it comes in a eight ounce clear bottle with a hand pump!  Eight ounces of this soap goes a long way with all of its uses.  Now available at my Etsy page;  Organic Linseed Oil Soap  Great soap for the Boat especially the teak!  All natural, very water salable, versatile cleaning abilities,  could be the only soap you need for your yacht.

Please keep checking out my blog as i’ll be posting short “how to clips” on the soap’s uses.

I just completed these great live edge cheese boards made from a vertical cut piece of black walnut.  The tree was over 150 years old!  The feet are made from corks, cheers!  The pieces are finished with raw linseed oil and a linseed oil wax which brings out the amazing grain!  Safe for food and long lasting!  Available now on Etsy at: Live Edge Cheese Boards

They make a great gift!

I’m excited to announce that my handmade, organic linseed oil soap is now available at Greenstreet Gardens in Lothian, Maryland.

After many compliments from people who have tried my soap, it’s great to have it available for more people. You’ll find it in the men’s section, but my wife loves it to shave with as much as I do.

A friend from Herrington Harbour is using it on his wood floors, another dock mate loves how easily it cleans his teak. The perfect stocking stuffer!

Currently I’ve started making an organic version of Linseed oil soap! Linseed oil is flax seed oil and my soap is made from US organically grown cold pressed flax seed oil and purified water. This soap is rich in Omega 3,6,9 fatty acids and feels great on your skin! Cleans virtually anything, use full strength or dilute with water.

I had my first retailer, Greenstreet Gardens in Lothian, Maryland agree to sell my linseed oil soap.  They loved the soap and the versatility of the soap.  Greenstreet Gardens is a great home and garden shop on the shore of the Chesapeake Bay, selling many local hand made products in their gift shop!  Here is a link so you can have a look Greenstreet Gardens.  A small step in getting the soap out there, very inspiring, thank you, Greenstreet Gardens!

 

I’ve just made the first batch of organic linseed oil soap.  The soap came out great and feels very nice on the skin.  This soap is made with organic cold pressed flaxseed oil grown here in the US!  I plan on producing the organic version once I fully test its quality of use, so far so good!  Organic flaxseed oil is very good for your skin due to it having Omega 3 and Omega 6 fatty acids.  Using the soap is a great way to topically introduce it.  I really like to shave with it leaving my skin feeling very smooth and clean!
