On Monday I sanded down my board further (with 1200 sandpaper) on the edges so it was so incredibly smooth, so it felt unnatural - sorta like smooth plastic or something. I also asked Terry several times whether he could get matte black paint (see pic) as this is the colour I want on my whole board. During the second period of our double-period Terry sent Kenji, Big Sam and I to Resene to pick up paint supplies (10L bucket & six 100mm paintbrushes). We did exactly as he asked but he then sent us back down because "the paintbrushes were too expensive" ($30 each!) so we went back down and got the lady behind the counter to ring Terry regarding the paintbrushes. They sussed it out and we then walked all the way back to the school, for no reason. It was pretty funny because Sam tried to ditch the paintbrushes in a bush, he then realised he was a retard and went back and got it. Today I'm doing the usual blogging (as it's Wednesday). Tomorrow I'll be working in the room next to the metalwork room , on the computers - continuing my design. Next week I hope to put primer on the whole thing, and finally spray it matte black. Next term I'll be putting my rainbow design on the board, and if I have enough time (as we only have 4 weeks - 48 hours of DTM left).
