Renovating a home
It seems the floor is not all that sturdy/massive/thick and all. It is a number of layers but not all as strong as they seem. The bottom bricks can almost be picked up without any power tools to loosen them.
Gonna have a go at it with a friend. Might just save us a few thousand euros…
Haven’t kept proper track but we’ve found at least one hammer, one screwdriver, one cheese grater, some names of previous builders and other markings. The first image is an example of the latter which turned up today behind layers of wall paper near the fireplace. Not a clue what it all means. The bottom one is a nice vintage bottle opener (duh). Finders keepers!
The water is finally turned off. Enjoyed the view one more time.
It had not been an example of modern day tech and construction for a long time. Just made that a little more explicit. Balancing the power(s)…
Had not seen proper fire in ages but still… Will never see fire again (or anything at all for that matter). The wooden panel is what the meter box Is attached to
One of the last to go down. Medieval style with a battering ram. Worked rather well actually (they were not stupid a few hundred years ago…)
It is in fact rather pretty… Afraid we’ll get just plain white walls
Nails, Spikes, Studs.
Things were done thoroughly
Old (“schrootjes”) over older (planks). All gone now…
Pippi is inspecting the new containers.
