When I saw your first post my initial reaction was...I'd kill for his space his tools. Now that I've watched the progress of this house I have to add skill to that list, major skill :construction: . I'm just flat awed. The herringbone floor is amazing, I never would have thought to lay the floor that way (can't get my head outside the box). But I can promise that floor is going in my current project somewhere. Excellent work, keep the pics coming I'm dying to see what you do next.

judith...you cant have my shop, tools, but you can get my skill. the herringbone floor is just small pieces all the same size. i cut them on table saw with a jig. 1/4 inch by 1 inch. they must be the same exact size or it wont work. start in the middle of the room and work outward. you have to work fast until the pieces start laying together. use a slow setting glue. when you start it and have any questions i'll be here...ron
