It is wise to store the panel- ing for several days in the room in which it is to be used. Separating sticks used between the pieces permit a flow of air It is essential to test the stain on a piece of the same wood you are staining to make cer- tain it is 'the shade that you want. Remember that large completed areas will appear darker than the small test area, and also, the wood itself will mellow and darken with age. Once the stain has completely dried, apply a lacquer sealer and rub lightly with sandpaper. Follow with a minimum of two coats of clear varnish or shel- lac and rub smooth with fine to create a truly professional| needs. These woods come in either clear grade or knotty looking job.

When they fail to operate, it's usually because of a short cir- cuit or, the more common rea- son, because the circuit is over- loaded. You should know where the! fuses or circuit breakers are, what parts of the house they con- trol and how to replace or re- set them. If you don't know, a good time to find-out is when the electrical contractor is bringing your wiring system up to date. You then can make a small dia- gram of what's what and paste it on the inside of the fuse box door. An important point: never replace a fuse with one of a higher ampere rating. If you do, you have destroyed the entire h eafety value of the fuse.
