The last few days have been incredibly hectic. So much so that I've made a lot of progress since Tuesday. Finished the floor in the first room. Installed three doors: a bifold at the electrical panel, and two others.
Found baseboards and casing at the Home Reusables store, and put those on as well, using my nifty new air nailer. I even got the window trimmed out with some other stuff I found at Home Depot. (Moulding six expensive, and there is a LOT of it in a house. At a buck or so per linear foot, the small bedroom alone cost over $100, with half of that being purchased at a discount reclaimed products store.)
I like the way the flooring turned out in the room. It has character.
On to the hallway, which was a fantastic challenge. The planks needed to be pounded in lengthwise, and pressure put on the end as it slipped under the previous plank. Definitely a two person job. How relieved was I when I continued the floor over past the hallway to the living area and did a rough fit to see if it would line up... And it worked. Phew!
Finally, today, I pushed through and completed the rest of the floor. It took about 8 hours nonstop, but its done:
Next steps before the family gets here for a visit: throw a couple of doors on the utility room and storage closet, and buy doorknobs for at least a partially finished look.
