Busy Work

Until the garage roof goes on we are once again at a stand still in the building process. I can  always find something that can be done. With the rain this week we are working on rent houses and when they are finished we can do piddly things around our place. This morning I started painting the doors going into the garage from the West Wing, Residence, and the Work Shop. I never need tape for cutting in when painting. I have a steady hand and a pretty good eye. This past weekend on a rent house I discovered that my hand or eyes are getting older and it was more difficult than usual to make that straight line.

The doors have small panes that need the trim painted.I figured I should probably tape all the glass.

I taped off each of the panes before painting. I don't see how painters do this, I can't get the tape to tear perfectly straight to fit into the corners. Even though I got the tape into the corners as best as I could I will need to use a razor blade to get the paint off the glass. After doing all of this I figured out that if I had used scissors to cut the tape it would have been straight. Next door and the other side of this one will definitely try the scissor trick.
