On the forth meeting for Community Service, it was Monday where the other half of the group members were supposed to continue the work done from last Friday's.
​
We had agreed to meet up at 930am at PPOC. Those that had turned up for today were Oscar, Chris, Min Wei and I. We had continued on from the last work on Friday that were not yet completed. We were there until 2pm.
​
The tasks that we had done for today was the paint the second layer of paint and paint two tables from the base coat to the two layers of paint lacquer and allow it to dry.
From this first task, I had learnt that it takes alot of patience to complete painting the base and painting the two layers of paint lacquer on top. We had to wait alot in between drying time so that the paint will effectively coat the surface of the tables legs.
​
It was also not easy to produce an application that was smooth as using the paint brush manually will produce strokes on the paint if not done evenly. It was difficult to produce even strokes as we also had to take into consideration the direction of brush stroke of the paint.
​
After waiting for it to dry, we had to arrange back the half-dried tables at the designated corner beside the staircase while making sure the tables do not touch each other while waiting for it to fully dry.
