I'm almost done with my big final project for my art class... when suddenly...
... I finally get around to reading the label on the lacquer I'm coating it all with before I put the pieces together.

Turns out I need to wait two hours before it's dry enough to try anything like adding a second coat or flipping it over to lacquer the other side.

D'oh.

And Thursdays are my long days, where I have to wake up at or before 7 and I'm on campus until almost 10. D'oh.

So yeah... not gonna be gettin' much sleep.

5. Thanks. I'm on campus now, and if I can find a place to lie them out for a while
I'll probably put another coat on. My art class is the very last one of the day, so it's not due until tonight.

4. Well, if I'd done it the day before like I meant to it wouldn't have been a problem. :P
But I procrastinated, and that's what I get.

8. Look pretty nice so far, but I think it could use another coat of lacquer. :)
I brought my digital camera with me so I can take pictures once it's all assembled.
