What a strange 24 hours it has been here. The current temp is 18C, at 10:30 pm in November!! There's heavy rain and a hot, humid wind blowing from due south (that's NOT a political comment, just relax mods) It's forecast to continue through tomorrow, winds 50kph gusting to 90.
Noticed after chores tonight (the shop is also the change room for barn clothes) that all the cast iron tops have a light rusty haze (except your jointer Mack, which was covered up). I haven't had any heat on yet as it's been good to be able to slide the exterior door open on nice days, which I can't do once it's sealed up with styrofoam for the winter. I guess maybe I was stretching the season too far and should have been keeping those surfaces warm.
It'll be rub-down time tomorrow. Anyone have any favourite surface treatments to share?
Have a great weekend.
