what I thought was going to be an easy installation turned out to be a big job. Have about 4 hours in it up to this point.

Hello Dr.,
Yes, I did all the painting myself. At first, I was going to hire it done. But in light of the "do it myself" theme, I decided to do it myself. The paint job was the hardest task (most physical labor) of the whole project. I think I had at least 100 hours in the painting alone. Since I had never done anything like this, I had a few "do-overs."
