Week#14 - Putting Up White Pine

Good morning everyone,

It has been a couple of weeks since I last blogged. We are back together as a family. Louise is home with Julianne and we have been busy. Below you will find some pictures of the recroom as of this morning. I worked about 3 hours yesterday. I might get some more done tomorrow as it's Easter Monday.

Once again putting up the pine is pretty straightforward with the exception of the receptacles. I'm taking a week of holidays in about 3 weeks. I hope to have most of the pine up by then so that I can finish the beams and start working on the drop ceiling.

Week#13 - North Wall

Good morning everyone,

Yesterday I finally finished putting up the knotty pine on the North wall. The whole process was pretty straightforward. The only tricky part was the vacuum outlet which only had about a 1/8" clearance for the plate.  The next picture shows the start of the work.

I used 16 pieces of 16' of knotty pine. Most of it was in good shape. I think I will have to buy some more because I only have 23 pieces left and have a lot of work to do still. The next 4 pictures show the recroom as it is at the moment.

Well that is it for this week.  I do not think I will get much done next week as we have a baptism and a birthday party to go to.
