I finally finished up the great room. The wall is all gone, and the wall’s and ceiling patched up. The floor has all been put back in place…
and thanks to my friend Chris (who loaned me his finish nailer and air-compressor) the base boards are all in. The floor took about a weekend and a couple of evenings to put in but since most of the baseboards were already cut (and I numbered them when I took them off) the baseboards only took about an hour to put back in. I still need to fill in the nail heads with color matched putty and caulk the top edge but otherwise everything is done.
Here are a few pictures…
Here is the view from the stairs…
