DIY floor



We have planned to install a new wood floor for a long time. This summer is the time. I'm posting the beginning of the process and will add pictures as we go along. At some point I hope to have one of those time lapsed jobs that show the whole process - start to finish.

Our friend Jeff Martinson is helping in this picture.

I helped my brother put in a hard wood floor once. It was a character building odyssey of foul language.

However the end result was well worth the effort. It only took us four months to start speaking to each other again.

Good luck to you on your endeavors.

Here's a tip: don't work with an anal retentive perfectionist.

I am the unreliable witness to my own existence
