Kitchen Cabinets

We loaded all the base cabinets (except 1) & took them to the house. The 2x4's against the log wall worked great, the cabinets all lined up perfect & it was easy to secure them.


There is one more base cabinet to install, but when we found these (display in a local kitchen shop) the other base was a 30". We only have room for a 15" between the stove location where the wire is coming out of the wall) & the fridge (beside the tall cabinet). I dis-assembled the 30" upper cabinet & shortened it this afternoon, just have the base to finish, then onto the countertops.

I can't believe how different everything is looking. It will be so cool to see it all in person! It sounds like my brother will be home around March 15 from overseas, so we'll be coming back around that time. We should definitely get together -- we're flying into Indy, I'm coming for about 12 days or so, and Trav will be coming for an extended weekend. I told him we should wait until you need an extra hand on something in Indiana and you could "request" to head office that he be there to help, then we could visit with you, haha! Just kidding :) Hope you two are doing great! Miss you guys!

Stain samples

Image
Jessica & I needed to figure out what stain to use to protect the logs. We ordered samples from 3 different companies (listed below). Here's our logs (red pine), cleaned but no stain as a reference: Heres the stain list that corresponds to the sample #'s on the logs: Sikkens Natural Oak Sikkens Natural Sikkens Natural Light Sikkens Butternut Sikkens Cedar Sikkens Teak Woodguard Honey 2000 NF Woodguard Honey Base NF Woodguard Warm Pecan NF Woodguard Tawny Cypress NF Woodguard Dark Walnut NF High Sierra Applewood High Sierra Tan Pine High Sierra Bronze Sycamore We narrowed it down to 12 + 14, so we coated 1/2 a log in each of the remaining samples, and the applewood color (12) really looks to be the best for us.

Loft joists are finished

Finally got back down to the house today (did I mention night work stinks??) & finished off the other 1/2 of the loft floor joists. Ready for some OSB decking on-top. The bottom will be covered with drywall & the top will likely stay unfinished.

Kitchen almost done!

 Kitchen cabinets were delivered a couple weeks ago, we got everything installed. Also got lucky and find a range hood cover that was the perfect size and a really good deal, so picked it up and installed it.  Got the vent insert nstalled this weekend. Finished some lighting above the sink and in the hallway as well as the island plugs and dishwasher.  We installed the shower slider doors in the master as well, and the mirror above the vanity.   Oh and we also got fridge, stove and dishwasher delivered!
