August 4, 2013: Day 28 - FreeBasing



After a busy weekend, I got to removing the old wall base in the family room.  To keep costs down we were originally going to keep the old.  Shauna and I agreed that that would be a mistake. So, after some family fun at the drive in on Friday and a train ride into Boston on Saturday, I got cracking Sunday morning.  The old base was installed on the subfloor with the wood floors butted against.  Of course there are nails at or even sometimes below the floor line.  Made some good progress only to run into some wet plaster in the exterior corner of the kids old bedroom (the new office).  I only punch a few holes in the plaster at this corner before giving up for the day.  Did a little clean up outside to keep the nails in the grass at bay.  Call it a mental health weekend I suppose.

Old base in Dining Room is gone.

Wet cement board is no match for a wonder bar.
