Yesterday and today, we continued with the task of coating the white top coat of the polyester resin on the wooden framework of the Skylight. We finally finished it today mid-afternoon.

Tomorrow, we will check all the surfaces for any defects, rub down any spiky bits and sand clean the bottom edge (this never had any treatment with the various resins) and drill fixing holes so it is ready for gluing and screwing down to the Kerb. The visible interior portions (like the bottom of the rafters) can be painted in the traditional manner later on when we decorate the interior.
Then it would be the big job of hauling all the pieces up to the roof and the Skylight to install the whole framework into place.
