Very cool, thanks tom!

Floors are coming! Installation is all done, and now they are going to let it sit and acclimate for two weeks before sanding and finishing. We went with the 3/4“ x 3” solid brazillian cherry hardwood. It already looks great and it isn’t even done!

A cool little Ford Focus. Louise is really happy with it.

Well! Here’s more work.
Louise painted the side of the fireplace red. I made some side wood panels to make it look nice:

The edge is going to be covered up with a wood corner:

At the same time, I made another piece to cover the top of the vent box I had made:

it is really starting to look nice!

I sanded the top beam a TON, stained it, and put three coats of interior varnish on it. It looks 100% better:

In the background of the above picture you can see where i started sanding off the watermarks on the side of the roof. I sanded the entire interior roof on one side. It took a long time, but it looks a lot better without the watermarks and fresh oil. I finished that tonight, putting on a coat of Wacto Danish oil to seal it.

Here’s a close up of the window sills I made:

I also installed some mount points for loiuse’s silk (which we don’t have yet):

She painted the back laundry room green:

The window in that room isn’t done:

I sanded, stained, and varnished (3 coats) a bunch of outlet/light covers:

They look good installed:

I also removed a “piece of glass” that was trying to pass as a window and installed a real double pane window next to the rear sliding glass doors:

Well, that’s it for this update! More coming soon. We may be getting floors within the next few weeks! Yess!
