We had an incident with our great dane on the family room carpet, so we needed to transition to hardwood floors (which was in our plans for the future anyway) ....Dave got this
idea that he wanted to make a hardwood floor himself, so he tried to get me to agree to just buying the wood he found on KSL.com from an
old barn....WHAT? ARE YOU CRAZY??? Yes we are, but I am
NOT that crazy, I had NO idea how planing an old barn's wood would look?? So I made him buy sheets of Maple and he began to plane and whatever it took to turn those sheets into beautiful pieces of hardwood planks!
And that's how we got to this point...my parent's LOVED our hardwood floors so they had to top us off and have DAVE do theirs...and of course it was topped!!! Dave just gets better and better! And I am amazed each time...so here are a few pics of what he has done so far...this is not with the sanding or polyurethane, those pics to come soon!!!
Dave loading up the WOOD!!!
These bags are filled full of little pieces of wood for the border.
Lets play Jenga! ;)
