been busy but trying to move some on the engine house
I have had very little RR time, as I have been working on my ,on floor bathroom, a back porch converted to a bathroom back in the 30s or 40's.
the wall and most of the floor, all of the plumbing, and most of the wiring had to go, so it has been akin to new construction, except working with a space that has no level, plumb, or square surfaces.
the foundation has been rebuilt, along with the floor (my vinyl isn't here yet, nor is a custom ordered window ) the floor is insulated and the outside wall in insulated, and I'm getting close to having the ceiling insulated, but it has ate most of my time.
Sawdust's work has been inspiring me, so in my breaks I have been playing with the saw, trying to find the right wood for the Crooked creek engine house.
earlier this year, when I was working on the back hall, I built a door to the RR room out of some nice, super thin tongue and grove pine, to replace a cheap plastic folding door, which couldn't keep a determined cat out of the RR room. the leftovers cut well, and it looks like these may be my planks.
I'm going back to work on the bathroom, getting ready for the ceiling (the toilet and tub are in and working, I'm putting in a pedestal sink, so I want the vinyl floor down before I do that. I'll post more photos as I work on stuff when i come out of the cold to warm up.
