Spent another day on my piano coatrack, all of it sanding and finishing. So much sanding...

Got the main piano coatrack finished, up next will be the frame

All but four of the keys rotate, but not sure it'll usually be more than a few open at a time.

Process below:

Sanded from 80, all the way up to 400 grit for the white and black keys. Then started applying some homemade shellac. Ended up doing an amber shellac for the black keys and a blonde shellac for the white keys.

After about 6 coats of shellac, sanding with 400 grit between the last three layers, I did a few layers of my homemade beeswax finish buffing till smooth.

[To the one person that knows me IRL and follows me (besides Master); I am sorry. Ignore this :3]

Big feels about the ending...

I [Victoria, LEF showrunner] have been putting some of the work on the final episode off because I am not ready to be done. That is, of course, not the same as the story not ready to be done, because, well, it is ready. But I wasn't ready. This summer, I got the idea of expanding to a fifth season, which really was just about my inability to let go and not because the story needed it, but I was talked down from that idea. The story was always supposed to be 24 episodes, corresponding with 24 parts of the school, and any attempts to stretch beyond that are just my emotions, not what the story needs.

Now that I'm finished, it is bittersweet. Certainly, there is a sense of accomplishment to being done. I consume a lot of audiodrama, and I've come across many projects that are abandoned or on indefinite hiatus, or do not maintain a regular production schedule. And knowing the work that goes into making an audiodrama, I don't say this as a judgment, because I tell anyone who is interested in starting an audiodrama podcast to take the number of episodes they reasonable think they can do and find a way to cut that in half (be that fewer episodes or more time between them, etc.,) because it will be more work than expected, even if you already expect it to be a lot of work. But knowing how many audiodramas I have seen get abandoned and knowing myself and the number of projects over the years that I have abandoned, putting out LEF for almost 4 years on a consistent basis with no major delays feels like a huge accomplishment.

Today, I uploaded the final pieces of the episode to the drive that the team shares so that Nick [our sound engineer] can work his magic. This meant that my part of the episode was done. When I finish an episode, I move the episode's folder on my laptop to an archive folder. Because this is the last episode, I renamed the archive "Lavender Evening Fog". And I cried a little.

As for what's next--I hope to announce the timeline for my next audiodrama project (which will be shorter and more experimental) around Halloween. I have started writing short plays, I am doing dramaturgy for an Unrehearsed production of Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew and Nick and I are talking about doing a short guerilla film this fall.

Finishing up has felt weird because in many ways LEF has already begun to feel a little like juvenilia-- not in a disparaging sense, but that it is clearly a starting point and I have been learning so much-- but it was the project for which I really started to think about myself as a writer and an artist, and to approach my creative work seriously.

I think I'll probably do some posts about what I learned and storylines I ultimately didn't include, fun easter eggs for the tumblr crowd.

Now, to cry some more...

95-100% ethanol for shellac →

On the recent episode of the MWA podcast, we had a discussion on my favorite finish, and I went on about my love for shellac, and especially seedlac. I've written about why Everclear is a better solvent for making your shellac than denatured alcohol, and one thing to look out for when buying Everclear.

In case you live in a place that doesn't sell 190 proof Everclear, Brian Glendenning let me know about another source for 95% ethanol. Culinary Solvent sells 95% and 100%(!) ethanol. I haven't tried this myself yet, but Brian mentioned that he has 2 gallons of their ethanol, and he didn't complain about it to me.

I have no idea how this is legal, but as Brian mentioned to me, the 2 gallons of it in his shop should disprove any skepticism.

Want to build your own Piano Coat Rack?

I put together some plans for the Piano Coat Rack so that if anyone else wants to try to make one they have a starting point. I ended up putting them on itch.io for free since tumblr doesn't really like PDFs or zip files. The plans are free for non-commercial use. I also have a section describing some of the process to hopefully make it fairly easy to replicate.

I put these plans together in FreeCad, so along with a PDF version of the technical drawings there are also full 3D models that you can use to get a better understanding of how it goes together. If you notice any oddities or mistakes or have any question please just me up!

Also if you make one please tag me, I would love to see it!
