Yar, ye be walkin' the plank

So we've put in more work on the office floor over the past few days. Here's what has come of it:

We have a few weird-ish areas around the door and closet, but thankfully they were close enough to 45º that we could cut them without too much difficulty.

We're sneaking up on the closet wall here. Thankfully we've already undercut the door frame, so it was pretty easy to get the flooring underneath it.

We are definitely running out of space to keep our tools!

This was lucky. One of our boards fit perfectly so the end of it came right to the corner there on the left. If it hadn't, getting the board cut and fitting properly would have been pretty rough. Sometimes things just go your way.

We decided to finish out the entry first and then go back and fill in the closet.

So close now!

We had to rip a short board here. The walls aren't really straight, either in the horizontal plane or the vertical, so getting the wood to match was pretty tough.

Woo-hoo!

This was one of the tougher pieces, but the template we built for the underlayment really helped a ton. I'm never doing a project like this without templates again. It took a while to make, but it saved so much time and material later on.

Slowly filling in the closet.

We're to the point now where the nailer won't fit anymore, so we're drilling and nailing through the tongue.

Last row!

My finest moment. Ladies (and certain gentlemen) this is what you've been waiting for. First off, this is the last board in this room. Second, you can see my very cool little hat light. It's my normal flashlight I carry every day, but the clip can turn around to be used like this. It was incredibly handy. I suppose the fact that almost my entire hind end is hanging out of my pants might appeal to some as well. Mostly my wife.

All done!

Look how pretty! The foamy underlayment in here makes a huge difference. Walking around on the bare subfloor was incredibly loud and echoy. Echoey? I have no idea. It echoed a lot. In here now, everything is much quieter. Louder than on carpet, for sure, but very reasonable.

This is what success looks like.

With this room done, we're on to the colonial room! I'll keep you posted on progress there as well. Thanks for reading!
