Thanks Anja and Bob.

 

Well Anja about preparations for deck :D Well where l live you can't find some wood sheet thick about 0,5 mm or 1mm to glue them to frames and have nice surface for deck. So I made wood parts to fill big holes between frames and then I use a wood putty. So next is sanding and I think I will have fine surface for deck planks.

One hole is higher which will be seen better when I glue plank which is in line with deck. :D Well it isn't first mistake and won't be last I'm sure :)

Hello Elmir,

 

Nice job on sawing the planks. They look good.

 

'Experience is simply the name we give to our mistakes'.

I think it was Oscar Wilde who said that.

 

Good luck.

Works on deck. Its mix of ink and glue. It's very dirty but also fast and effective :)

Thanks Anja. Well I will take off (sand) about half mm of deck as planned to get nice surface. So it should be enough to take off this mess also ?

i am interested to see how much the planks will clean up, i had guessed the ink would stain through the full depth of the plank

Its all part of Kev's journey, bit like going to the dark side, but with the lights on

Well I seen this method many times. But also Kevin you might have a right. Best option is to little sand this planks to see result ? :D I'm beginner so everything is possible. I can not ignore warnings from my older and experienced colleagues. Thanks

although i tend to use a permanent market on one edge of each board - i still get some bleeding, other prefer using card, which gives a nice result, i hope your way works

Before you go any farther with the deck, make a mock-up off the model and then apply a coat of finish.  If there is going to be any bleeding, it will show up then.

I'm not sure that I understand you very well Toni. Are you saying about possibility of stains from ink after wet finish apply? If that so deck is already finished yesterday :D And also from beginning I'm aware of that possibility but I think that glue and ink are now solid mix and won't make problems with linen oil.

 

We will see in next few days :)

 

Cheers everyone and thanks my friends for interest, kind words and encouragement.

Elmir, I am not sure what linen oil is...maybe linseed oil?  From personal experience, I have had the experience of bleeding as a result of the finish being applied.  I hope you do not have any problems.
