Bust the Bundles

Do you remember almost a year ago when the Welders celebrated their third anniversary? Click here to be refreshed of that BIG day. Well, like many of their acquisitions, a year later, they visit them again. Saturday, it was time for the stack of wood flooring to quit acting as a shelf. Installation time had finally arrived.
Well, almost. First, dad moved this pile of dirt leftover from the septic tank project.
The girls busted the bundles.
And started carrying it up to the second floor where it would be installed.
A before shot of the gym. The weird orange thing is a special nailer used for flooring.
The girls scraped and cleaned the flooring but the guys actually had one more project to complete. They trimmed the game room ceiling. Old metal ridge roll was added on these two angles.
And wooden trim was added down the two center peaks.
Finished!
After the gals had quite a stack of wood flooring waiting to be installed, it was somewhat hard to be motivated to keep doing the monotonous task. They took a break and cleaned up some of the junk lying around in the yard. By the end, the picnic table was ready for a picnic and the garage loft had a nice stack of supplies for future wood working projects.
Soon it was the moment we've been waiting for. The guys started to nail down the flooring.
Just look at those skinny pieces.
Yes, that is two rows. The guys worked with and decided the floor jack (a deal used to pull the pieces tightly together) needed a little tweaking and with bolts from dad's shed. It was time for dinner so we called it a night but had a plan in place for the next day.
