The Sloping Band House: My crap Hardwood floors
http://slopingbandhouse.blogspot.com/2006/01/my-crap-hardwood-floors.html
Wednesday, January 25, 2006. My crap Hardwood floors. Why is it that some of us know the right way to do something, but don't do it? Is it being Lazy or is it wanting something so bad we go about it haphazardly? In my case. I know that when sanding hardwood floors, you start with a rough grade of sandpaper, medium grade and then fine grade. Stain the floors and add some. Etc I didn't do that. Don't do what I did! You can sand through your floor and fall in! I used this machine. The floors look beautiful!

http://slopingbandhouse.blogspot.com/2010/01/from-duplex-to-single-plex-new-window.html
Sunday, January 10, 2010. From Duplex to Single Plex - New Window! When we bought our house in November 2005, it was a duplex, complete with a wall running through the front room. After several tours and other repairs (and after Eleni recovered my password so I could blog again! I finally replaced one of the doors with an old four-over-one window (pictured in the middle). I bought the window itself at Peter's Design Works a couple of years before installing the window this past summer. Musician and carpe...

Monday, January 16, 2006. Moving the Outlet and the Closing of Beloved Cafe. As you faithful readers of the sloping house know, I knocked down a wall the other day. In that wall was an outlet that I had to move to another wall. The existing electrical wire wasn't long enough to hook into the new socket, so I had to install a junction box underneathe the house, splice the wire, and attach a longer piece of wire that would reach the outlet. Here are some basic tools that I used:. Existing wires together as...

I started to dig around the. The old pipe came out at a 70 degree angle from the house, continued und...

The Sloping Band House: December 2005
http://slopingbandhouse.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 31, 2005. When tearing down walls sometimes you find great treasures of gold, silver, or money that most people forgot they hid. In my case, I was lucky enough to recover 2 great baseball cards:. Although I don't care much for the Phillies, my favorite childhood baseball team was the Mets. They'd lose their jobs. The other day we got a "free" piano. Well it wasn't exactly free after we paid some people to help us move it into our house. But here it is:. Thursday, December 22, 2005.
