Repainting the Tool Store, 12th October 2008
Our stash of tools is housed in a metal shed safe from the elements and
undesirables. To keep it from rusting away, a few eager volunteers set about
renewing its exterior coat of paint.
The surface rust and muck was removed with wire brushes and then 2 coats of
Hammerite paint were applied. We decided to go for a fetching new
colour of black, mainly because that was the only colour the many DIY stores
of Lincoln had in stock in sufficient volumes (the Henry Ford approach!).
Fortunately the rain kept away so the work was completed in a day.
Thanks to Nick, Jude, Nicola and Delphine for their valuable work.
