 THE KITCHEN FlOOR |
|
This was the most difficult
of all the projects I took on. Upon moving into my apartment, there
was no floor in the kitchen, just a sub floor of sorts. So I started
peeling off layers. There were many generations of style. Each showing
the personality of the people who lived in the apartment before. Below
is what was cut around my kitchen sink and you can see how many layers
of flooring there was. The last of tiles, which was really the first
of them, was the most difficult of all to remove. Boy they really
made things to stick in those days. |

After getting it all up there was gluey looking wood staring back at me. Through the residue I could see beautiful wood grain striving to show its glory. So I went and found myself a hunk.

HELPFUL HINT: While having any hunk around can be motivating, one with sanding skills is preferred.  |
|
While he is sanding the floor you dream about varnishing. |
