    $80!? You’re brilliant. Thank you SO MUCH. I think I can handle this without my husband’s help and I won’t have to listen to his complaints about the cost!

    After watching the video advert i was still skeptical. But when i finally downloaded the plans ruclips.net/user/postUgkxZF0EMnrujZvqHhGkxiz559uIABJWR9TG i was very impressed. The whole plan was just as you said in the video. Thank you very much. I now have a large and valuable collection for my woodworks. This is great!

    I just finished a project using the same materials. We cut 1/2" plywood at 8" so we could get 6 equal boards, which were 7 1/4" inch when you figure the saw blade width. Then we ran it horizontally halfway up the wall as Wainscott. We used two nickels for our spacers turned out really nice.

Just goes to show " where there's a will ,,,, there's a way " .. and it's your way !! Finish projects are pretty much ,do as you want, but when you get into structural issues ,, get a qualified source of information so you won't run into code violations or safety issues...
    ....Guess I will view a few more videos to see the creativity you put into all of your projects ,, always impressed on the interest of young women today that take a hands - on approach to getting projects done...

    I couldn't tell from the video if you were being systematic about where you placed you nails and how many you used. I was also curious if you counter sank the nails and then filled them with anything before you applied the poly. Did you have any problems separating the planks after you applied the poly to the entire stack? I would have thought you would have a stack of planks all glued together at their edges. But, I thought it was an awesome way to get all the edges sealed and not having to do 50 individual edges.
