Phase two of the thick stucco walls has begun; THE SANDING. First we tried a medium grade sandpaper with our hands. Then I almost cried thinking about how long it would take us and what in the world are we doing?! Next try, courser sandpaper which proved a little faster. Still so much . . . let's try the electric sander. Better but super loud and heavy vibration. Hmm, purchased a new sander that hooks on to the shop vac. Ah ha, now we're rolling. Uh no, what's up with all the dust everywhere?! Shop vac is shooting it. Oh bother, buy a new filter for the shop vac and clean up the mess later!
