We are finally free of the nasty carpet on the upstairs starcase!
Tim is making great progress this week, as it was his week off.
I have wanted to see what was under it, in hopes that there might be actual wood that might be reclaimed.
There was!
It is so exciting to see it coming back to life.
There are only a few spots that really were problematic. The bottom step was broken and had to be glued, and one of the middle steps had started to come apart and the planks had separated. That was glued as well.
The grain is really pretty! I am excited to get the last picture, but here is the progression...
