Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Clean the wood surface with a damp cloth. Cover your work area with a dropcloth or tarp.

Answer: Wet the cloth with warm water and wring out the excess moisture. Wipe down the wood using long, linear strokes or smooth circles, working against the grain. When you're done, give the surface a few minutes to dry to the touch. Your wood surface needs to be free of dust, dirt, oil and other messes in order for the tung oil to set up properly. A good wipedown also serves to raise the wood grain, which makes sanding more effective and results in a smoother overall finish. This extra layer will serve as a protective buffer between the wood and its surrounding surfaces. With it in place, you'll be able to work quickly and efficiently without worrying about making an oily mess. When you're finished, simply take your cover outside and spray it off. You can also stretch out a few sheets of newspaper if you don't have a tarp or dropcloth on hand. Rich natural oils like tung oil can leave permanent stains if they find their way onto absorbent materials.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Excavate your building site to a depth of 68 inches (1520cm). Continue digging 812 feet (2.43.7m) beyond sloped sites to level them. Dig a deep trench around your site to serve as the footer for your foundation. Place 2-3 lengths of #4 rebar along the bottom of the footer trench. Backfill your dig site with 68 inches (1520cm) of crushed stone. Pour the concrete foundation.

Answer: Clear out a large square or rectangular pit matching the planned dimensions of your barn by going over it with an excavator, backhoe, or bulldozer. Make sure the excavated area is as smooth and level as possible prior to pouring your foundation. Many power equipment companies rent out excavators, backhoes, and other excavation tools on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Run a quick search for your equipment of choice plus the name of your town or city to find a renter in your area. Be sure to save the topsoil you remove. It can come in handy for building up uneven areas or completing future landscaping projects. If you're planning on building your barn into a hillside, you'll need to do some additional excavating to even out the terrain you've selected. Cut into the soil a few feet past the uphill side of your planned perimeter to ensure that your entire building site sits on flat ground. Be sure to provide a consistent amount of space all the way around. For a barn that's 30 feet (9.1m) x 40 feet (12m), your excavated area would need to be 3842 feet (1213m) x 4852 feet (1516m). If you don't have enough space to extend your dig site, another option is to build a retaining wall along the back edge of the foundation's perimeter to stabilize the adjacent soil and halt runoff. The footer is the lowermost part of the foundation, designed to anchor it in the ground and provide support for the surrounding concrete walls. Use your excavator to open up a long, linear channel spanning the outer perimeter of the excavated area. Keep in mind that your footer must meet the minimum depth and width requirements specified in your local building codes. These can vary from place to place, depending on the regional climate. It's not necessary to dig the foundation for a barn quite as deep as you would for a house or similar structure, since the walls and roof are all that it will be holding up. Run the metal rods straight down the center of the floor on all 4 sides of the trench, spacing them so that they lie 36 inches (7.615.2cm) apart and overlap where they meet at each corner. The rebar will serve as a preliminary layer of reinforcement for the concrete foundation you'll be pouring later on. Use a circular saw equipped with a ferrous-metal-cutting blade to trim your rebar to the appropriate size. You can purchase bags of machine-crushed stone in various sizes at your local home improvement center. Distribute the stone evenly around the excavated area, including the footer trench. Reposition the stone as needed with a shovel or gravel rake until lies level, with no noticeable mounds or depressions. Any type of stone sized #57 or larger will make an ideal substrate choice for structures like barns and large sheds. To guarantee maximum stability, it's important that all building sites be backfilled with stone, whether they're located on a slope or not. First, fill the footer trench with 68 inches (1520cm) of concrete and let it set for 2-3 days. Then, install vertical rebar at regular increments around the perimeter and pour a second round of concrete to complete the below-ground foundation wall, again allotting 2-3 days of setting time. Finally, install a grid of wire mesh over the substrate on your building site and pour a 56in (1315cm) layer of concrete for the slab floor. Alternatively, you can stack 810in (2025cm) cement blocks in the space between the concrete footer and the top of your substrate and pour the concrete for the slab floor between the uppermost layer of blocks. Once you've finished pouring the concrete for your foundation, allow it to set for another 2-3 days, or until it's had time to cure completely. Concrete floors are stronger, more durable, and easier to clean and maintain than bare dirt or gravel floors, but they can be hard on your animals' hooves. Consider covering your barn's center aisle with rubber pavers or mats, and be sure to put down a bed of gravel, clay, or straw inside your livestock stalls.
