I've tried a few things with poor results. Varnish, shellac. Eventually it will bleed through. My experience anyway.
Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

Same…it always bleeds through…just a matter of time.
Zinzer Bin stain blocker primer from almost any paint store. It’s a white primer / modified shelllac base with a secret ingredient ( zinc oxide) . It’s the only thing I have found for knots . Other thing going forward, don’t use pine from Home Depot or similar for interior woodwork for two yrs after you buy it , it’s not dry .

I’ll be watching this. We just bought out our gas rental tank. At $43 a month the savings will pay for it in two and a half years.
The plan is to set up for an electric one which is totally serviceable by a homeowner.
I have to look at panel capacity and tank location. Electric tanks don’t need to be near vents.
Does anyone have one of these vehicle undercarriage washers and if so does it work ok? My pressure washer is only 2100psi. I just want to use it to wash winter dirt/salt off the vehicle.
Pressure washer ratings are awful. That thing being rated at 4000 psi means very little. Your pressure washer is rated at 2100 psi with the 0 degree tip. It's rated at x.x gpm with no tip (or maybe the big tip?). That underspray bar has four tips on it. It will need y.y gpm to build pressure and do a better job than a hose. They don't even tell you what y.y is. The chance a homeowner has a big enough pressure washer to get over 4000 psi with four fan nozzles is vanishingly small. Some of the reviews want more nozzles, that would need even more flow.
When I had a country house we had a one and a half PVC pipe with eight princess auto rinse nozzles just vise grip threaded as a manifold and hooked to the pressure washer , driving back and forth four / five times completed the wash cycle . The total build was under a hundred bucks

I was looking for a cheap table to be used as a workbench and bought one at Habitat for Humanity for $60. I figured if it didn't work quite right the top was worth the $60 for a 6' X 3' slab with metal trestle legs and wheels.
It seemed kind of heavy when we went to load it and as we turned it over to slide it into the SUV I noticed a bunch of extras, like a motor and cables. It appears to be a lift table.
The motor is 24 volt and has about 7 wires running to it. To remove the motor, I had to cut a weld. Brilliant engineering.
I'm not going to pursue restoring the lift feature other than a simplified mechanical version but was wondering about the motor and if it was possibly a stepper.
