Just a few before and after pics of an old farmhouse that I am remodeling for the DW. I'm pretty much a hack, but I am learning as I go. I did 100% of the work alone. (You get creative clamping things when working alone!) [img]/forums/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
Now for the "After Pic"
This Pic is the Breakfast area before (Was an old laundry porch)
This is the breakfast area after remodel. The screen door leads to a new walk-in pantry. The screen door is really just for looks. (DW likes the old farmhouse look)
This is a view of one of the pantry shelves. The electrical plugs are for the mixer and bread machine etc. (Keeps appliances off the kitchen counters)

I guess you have to get creative. [img]/forums/images/icons/laugh.gif[/img] I've got a son-in-law who does that kind of work, and works alone. Always seemed to me that anyone doing that needed to have a helper, but I guess not. Looks like you're doing a real nice job.
Very nice work. [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

What is a DW? Duty wife? Dilligent woman?

DW is short for my DEAR Wife. [img]/forums/images/icons/smile.gif[/img] She has been very supportive and helpful in the past year that I have been building. If anybody deserves a "new" house, it's her. She is most defintely a "Dear"!
"I'm pretty much a hack"
You can hack on my house any time. It looks great to me. AND, it seems, you passed the Egon test. (He is probably THE wood person on CBN, if you didn't know.)
