Finally got to working on this.

Leaks wrecked the floor and the ceiling directly below the leak.

Got the rot torn out yesterday. Just got back from home depot with a new toilet, flooring and miscellaneous bits and pieces.

Some more progress.

This is an old house that's not straight. There's no precision to anything so I'm kind of just winging it. It's a little strange.

Tolerances are just a guideline... ;)

a completely different way than you, you will be open to understand how that

Ah, yes....I think I recall some discussion of this topic.

What is going over the particle board?
Never wrestle with pigs. You both get dirty, and the pigs like it...

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Did Mary approve these?

Not specifically but I did get a warning about the asbestos in the old tile, squeek sheet and black glue.

I had zero clue about this possibility.

I'm just here to help! 

Y'all should call me before you start these projects.

Taught Lead awareness for 9 construction workers in a church that is under major renovation today. Was a mile from home.  [thumbsup]

Made some progress today.

Finally :P

Very happy with the way the floor under the toilet came out. Solid, and surprisingly close to the level of the existing floor.
