grannyinthesky 0 #5 March 30, 2009 :4:0 I'm counting myself in the lucky bunch again. The weather cooperated with us long enough to get some jumps, but eventually rained on our bonfire.

Sunday was co-o-old with clouds and blue skies, but I stayed home to work on the project. 1: Beer for the first time ever chiseling all the particle board underlayment from a plywood subfloor.

I'm tiling the laundry room and that stuff was STUCK. After then laundry room I've got two bathrooms that are getting the same treatment. That's what I did in my new laundry room a few weeks back. I pulled off the existing linoleum flooring in the walk-in closet that I'm converting into a laundry room with the existing laundry closet. I found a thin layer of plywood underneath. That was stapled down real good. There was an older ugly as hell linoleum floor underneath that. Think 1970's ugly. And to make matters worse, THAT layer was glued to the particle board subfloor. I told myself "fuck that" and just got the giant crowbar and pried the particle board subfloor right off the original plywood subfloor. Then bought 5/8" thick plywood flooring. Turns out no lumber stores carry that particle board shit for flooring anymore. Water leaks just fucks it up. The whole house has that shit though, so I'm only replacing them with the plywood in the bathrooms and laundry rooms that will have tile. oops. I've hijacked the thread. 0:0:0 for me.
