Office Cube Panels -- Part 2



Wow, this is a huge job, but definitely satisfying. Well, all the panels are constructed. Just to recap thats: 11 4'x6' panels, 3 18"x6' panels, and 3 12"x6' panels. Now to the finishing. I filled all the nail holes that attached the plywood panels to the frames. I used my trusty Porter Cable brad nailer and compressor with 18 gauge brand to attach the 1/4" plywood. So every panel had 25 to 30 nail holes on each side. I have to admit the sanding wasn't a fun job. My Bosch detail sander was perfect for smoothing out the filler on the nail holes and the Porter Cable half-sheet sander was great for finishing off the job. I was very tedious given the number of panels, but I plugged in my iPod and spent the day getting it done. Now all the panels are ready for finish. I need to get on this because we are moving into our new office so these need to get done. Stay tuned for lots of posts as this project winds down.
