and varnished the Teak Ceiling Battens with 4 coats. The sanding and varnishing took us weeks of hard work. I can't even begin to imagine the amount of work, time and money you put into that project. I rebuilt my refrigeration and freezer boxes and installed new compressors and everything related and it took six months.

The reality is that I'm not so sure I have that much energy. She really looks good.
