A full remodel, and I was part of a crew of 'jack-of-all tradesmen' doing all manner of tasks. It's hard to keep doing the job AND remember to take photos. So, here's a sampling. Know that this project started by sweeping up the needles from the floor of the building that used to be here.
Ship-lap cedar panel, spray stained by yours truly and attached one at a time. A team effort for sure!
In process...don't underestimate how tricky the underside can be!
Floating shelves! What's holding them up?
Big ass screws, that's what!
You know, getting all those acoustic panels to fit snugly between ceiling joists that we not parallel was no easy feat.
Neither was the tight fitting wall paneling.
Shelves getting drilled for hanging.
Nice paint job!
Oh, so many planks!
Hung a few windows.
Oh, this door! All three of us to get that one in!
See? Heavy!!! (and tight fitting)
That's me. Living the dream, I suppose. It was March in Austin--not too hot yet--and I was having an existential moment atop that metal awning (which I helped install, btw). It was like all my memories were laid before me--the old equally vivid and present as the recent.
Looking at this picture from another city in another state, I s'pect I'm still sitting there now.
