The bathroom make over continues. Mimi picked out the lights she wanted- after I had finished the painting. She picked 2 lights, unfortunately there is only one mounting box/access. I really didn't want to have to cut into the freshly painted wall and mount a retro box, so we settled on an escutcheon plate style mounting piece. Kiln dried Red Oak. Acclimated to shop for approximately 2 weeks. Planed to 3/4". Oil based stain- Varathane- dried for 3 hours. One coat of Minwax gloss poly- dried for 12 hours. Sanded lightly with 220 grit. This is the second application of the same gloss poly. Tiny bubbles and they are not in the wine!! It is fairly warm today- about 80°- and the bubbles formed at the "open" grain ends. I guess there was enough air expansion to create this effect. I'll wait until it is completely dry and see what I can do.
