Almost there. Just have to finish painting the drawers and we’re good.

Laundry Pedestal
Here’s the nearly finished laundry pedestal with a coat of primer. The odd cutout in the back is for the dryer vent. The drawer fronts make it look symmetrical.

Bought a truck to help haul things to and from the new house
1988 F250 4×4.
I call it ‘Hulk’. The wife called it ‘Cookie Monster’. Might be more appropriate.
Price was right.
Demo work on the new house
Did some demo work on the house tonight. Opening up the kitchen to the dining room and removing the pantry (there’s another just around the corner).
Next step is to remove the 2×4’s.
The Saw….arrived
Assembly will come soon!
Bought a table saw…

Great web site showing the history of Detroit…and a very sad site.
See here.
The Nest…for the nest
Just picked up a couple of these for the new house.
