The pictures do not show how much sanding is going to be involved in finishing the posts for sealing. As you can see I am mortising in the landing for the ladder and the access for opening the window on the east end. 
Jim lent me our fathers old Stanley belt sander as mine is now ca put. I must say they used to make there tools a lot better . Oh yeah did I mention they also made them weigh a ton. The old Stanley weighs about 20 pounds and after 3 to 4 hours of sanding it does get to be a bit much. But what can I say it works, oh my sore shoulders!
