Two very different jobsites



On Monument Avenue in the Fan, the Chris-Nick-Mike super crew put the second floor back together again. We used reclaimed tongue and groove flooring from a building demolished on Leigh Street in Carver; we were lucky enough to be on site to salvage before demolition.  We've even got new plumbing run!




Out in Chesterfield, the even more amazing crew of Cody-Ben-Syd has repaired bug damage, worked on siding, and spent a lot of time doing a lot of math to build a cute little shed roof to protect a basement entrance.

Custom door frame also known as Syd's most favorite project ever


This is the door frame that I am replicating. This door frame is made from one solid timber, with channels cut in to take the little bead detail you can see here. This is the back door of the house.



The front door was replaced, and the proportions were all wrong. In order to make the jamb, I had to glue up two boards to mimic the large timber (top photo). In the two lower images, the channels are begun. Today I will let in a small bead. Keep posted for the finished product!
