I planned on remodeling the kitchen a year ago January but was informed that our Goddaughter's wedding was in April and Patti was baking the cookies for the cookie table. 2020 being what it was scraped the wedding plans. Decided to redo the first floor bathroom instead. Me personally I wanted to eliminate it and use the space in the kitchen but with family members getting older we have the need so it stays. Original owners paneled this room and covered a window in the back wall and then build a closet on that wall. When looking at the back of the house you'll see two windows & a door, more than once the missing window came up in conversation. We decided to make a true water closet and use the extra space and window in the kitchen. The window next to the closet was removed. Upper shelf held more games that it was rated for. I cut the wall into the kitchen to give her the feel of what 40 sq. ft. of additional space could feel like. Insulated and temporary wall cover since June. Removed the door jam instead of the frig door. Moving forward to 2021 and we are ready to start fresh. Removed all the underlayment & flooring. Back of the house faces west & door leads to enclosed back porch. We use it more for a pantry and rarely went out the back door, side door was easier. After several days we are at our goal and an empty room. Start new framing next week.

Since all my other projects are in the finishing and drying stage I started on demoing and remodeling a 6’ X 8’ closet which I am turning into my reloading room. The first part was to repaint and then lay the flooring. The painting will have to wait due to the situation at HD so yesterday I laid the flooring which is solid bamboo flooring. Paul

So I will soon be applying a stain and finish to red oak stair treads. Looking over the selection of products at Lowes I see that Minwax (and others) now market a poly specifically for floors. Do not buy what you have always used, use our more expensive and "made for floors" poly. Is there any real difference? I have not found it in anything less than gallon cans, and I will likely use less than a quart of it. I'm guessing if there is some difference that I could always thin the extra and have a lifetime supply of poly for future furniture projects... Have any of you done any hardwood floors lately? What did you use for a finish?

I need to replace the flooring in the kitchen and dining area. I am seriously considering hardwood flooring taken out of another house. What do you think about running this tongue and groove flooring through my planer before installing it. I believe I can get it at a really good price. Has anyone used the nailer for this application from Harbor Freight?
