Homasote Wall Runners

Got the homasote up on the wall. Just a little extra space for more pinning. The wall was really tuff to drill through so we ended up Liquid Nails -ing the 2x3s to the wall. Half the wood is attached with anchors and the rest is just glued up.

Whiteboard Table


The other day Tod and I took a large whiteboard down to make some more pinning surfaces. The whiteboard is a really nice one so we did not want to toss it but we where a little unsure of what to do with it. I figured we could use more work surfaces so I decided to turn it into a writeable desk. Looks really good but is huge and weighs a ton so the final assembly wont happen till most of the stuff is out of the room and walls are done. 


 Finally got the doors up today. Need to do some adjusting of the hinges so they all line up right. But now we have a new pinning surface in the space.

I started another blog tonight to have a place to show my personal work. Something I will keep working on after this summer project is over with.  Hope people enjoy it.

So I made a dumb mistake last week in my painting of the cabinet doors. It was really one of those mistakes I am glad I made because I know I will never do it twice. To keep things clean while I painted, I laid some paper on the floor underneath the doors. When I panted the edges of the doors I inadvertently glues the doors to the paper.  When I came in the next day I was pulling paper off the doors and leaving behind bits. Then spent the next hour scraping off the paper.
