Day 19: Bathroom finishing work
Day 18: Hidden Emotions
It was difficult to sleep last night knowing the pocket door was to be installed first thing in the morning. The pocket door is 1 of 5 new windows that’ll be installed, but it’s probably the most difficult and trick due how ‘square’ and tight everything needs to be. Since the house was built in 1951, lots of wackiness due to age, settling and the way they built back in the day. Nonetheless, Mario shaved back a few 2x’s to make it perfect…. and perfect it is.
Pocket door install
Big day tomorrow.. The pocket door is installed, primer and paint for
the interior walls…
Norm
I reached out to Kasper from Norm last night to understand how they achieved the unfinished / grey look for the flooring. He graciously gave us the info. I suppose you sand the floors and wash down with lye and white pigmented soap. I love how pure and simple this looks! Thanks Kasper!
Day 17: Western arrives
I pulled up to the house this morning at 630 to see the western truck parked across the street. It’ll take 4 people to carry one door that weighs close to 600 lbs. They’ll install the pocket door on Wednesday! Exciting milestone ahead.
