Above is the link where you can see what I'm talking about in this post. Normally I pride myself on keeping up with today's technology, but for some reason, I can't upload the video to this post and we're one man down today as Amanda, who is my personal techi and carpenter, has the 102.5 fever virus that has struck her family and all of Littleton over the past month so, I'm on my own today as I try to figure out this video thing for you. But, alas, I have figured it out, albeit it's not the most ideal, but it will suffice. I hope. On with the post---A couple of weeks ago, Red and Amanda were raising the kitchen floor as it was a sunken kitchen. Why, when people build, don't they just make things all one level? Okay, we'll reserve this rant for another time. Anyway all the 2 x 4 sticks of wood were all in place on the floor and ready to be covered with OSB sheeting. By the way, did you know that 2"x 4" sticks of lumber really aren't 2 inches by 4 inches? They are actually 1-1/2 inches by 3-1/2 inches. It's a long story and Red lost me in his explanation somewhere around the time he interjected the word, nominal. So, in case you're ever asked this facinating little fact for some kind of a trivia contest, you'll know the answer! Getting back to the wood floor project, Red and Amanda must have been getting a little goofy, or delirious as they were fast approaching their 14th hour of work that day, but they came up with a fun way of moving the wood sheeting over the 2 x 4's and into place. Can anyone say rubber mallet? Enjoy. See ya on the next post and thanks for stopping by. Kim :-)
