I’m loving the awesome humor that you have in this video! One thing I learned on another channel is that oxalic acid is extremely toxic. On that channel after it dries he washes the wood with lots of water to keep the dried crystals from going airborn. Then he has a squeegee to wipe the water off and uses a towel. He also washes the floor if the solution spilled because it is dangerous for his dog to walk on it and possibly lick it off. Since you use it routinely, this could be a big health risk for you and your kitty. I just want to help you stay healthy and live a long good life! 😊 The info online I found is from a beekeeper site, but I’m sure it is applicable to all who use that product. Loving your videos and what a good person you are!

I’m old enough to remember those desks, and thoroughly enjoyed your restoring it so beautifully. One of the best features of desks at that time was the pull-out boards on either side. Brought back a memory: Many years ago at work my supervisor couldn’t find the time cards (non-digital times). We all searched everywhere, with no luck. Later, he pulled out the extension board on his desk. The time cards were on top of the board, right where he had left them when he closed the board.
