Alchemy Paintworks
Apprenticeship
Alchemy Paintworks took on the challenge to clear coat over 200 artisan-wallpapered lightweight MDF tables. Many of the tables were hand painted and sanded but as the deadline approached the idea of painting the rest of the tables mechanically came up. An assembly line was set up in DigiFabShop's facility to clear coat the tables in an industrial coating machine and use a wide belt sander to level the surface once enough clear coat was added.
Skills Learned:
Material Properties
Sanding and Finishing Procedures and Techniques
Painting Techniques
