Looks better than plywood.

Got the flooring project finished today by getting the base boards and hearth trim done. Sure is nicer than plywood I gotta tell ya. Now I have to finish the spot in the dining room where the big Kitchen Quees stove is going and then get the floor done in there and the hall. It's been a long time coming, been living with plywood for too long. I bought this oak last spring with my muskrat money and hope to do the rest of the floors with the fur check this year.

Thank you for the great replies.

The lil shack has come a long way from what I started with but still a lot to do. Most of the wood and rocks came from the property here. I gathered stones for a long time for the hearth & chimney. All I had to buy was the morter and flue tile, the rest was free for the picking.

This is what the shack looked like when I bought it. It was 24x24 and abandoned for 24 years. It had a resident porcupine, red squirrels, mice and bats all trashing the place.


It sat on 28 gorgeous acres and had a 20x40 pole barn and I snagged it for 18 grand. ;D
I've expanded it over the years and now there's something like 194 acres here or something like that. I wish I knew how to transfer 8mm tape to digital so I could post some video of what it looked like inside. You wouldn't believe how trashed it was. I restructured the entire thing.

No Adam , I didn't paint that. I'm a pencil artist. Never got into painting.

Wow. Hard to believe that's the same place. It's come a long way. You've done an amazing job with it JC. ;D

JC !!! I would imagine you have surpassed all your original expectation's and then some . I wounder though if the "HEAD TOOL PUSHER" , "Mrs. JC" should be receiving some of these salutation's , or do you share all recognition received from members of the Swamp. , Mrs. JC, like the way you got it so bright and shiny for his pic's
