When we got the great room and dining area done, it was out to the garage to retrieve some furniture that had been stored for 18 months.

| Bowling anyone? |
Today Len has been working on fiddly bits around the posts near the kitchen.
 |
| Every piece carefully fitted |
Of course we had a big dump of snow so the trips out the shop are chilly!
 |
| Len has worn a path back and forth |
In a day or two the kitchen should be done. Watch for pictures then.

How many man years to build a home? You must be enjoying these final events.
ReplyDeleteWhat's happening in the basement - seems to me it has received very little publicity.
Were you able to get flooring nails to go with your brad nailer?
Hi Bruce, yes the basement has had very little press. It has been painted, carpets laid and such, but no real finishing yet. As the upstairs gets done, you might see things related to the basement. Len used regular brad nails for the bamboo and it worked quite well. This tongue and groove planking is made to be nailed, glued or floated so it didn't take much to get the planks to stay put. Some minor issues with splitting, but that is all.
