If you get stuck, rent a flatbed. I've got plenty of time and any work I have lined up can be rearranged.  ;D ;D

Yeah I hear you. Last time I did flooring like this for my parents and that wasn't an issue. Yesterday I dug one out of a knee pad. Still not to the flooring stage yet so not a big deal but it got my attention [laugh]

we used to put carpet padding in ours. it was great when they got old because that would keep us from getting stabbed by the staples. I switched to a set of neoprene pads that wrapped above and below the knee. they were really nice, but staples still went right through. lol
