Hiya Gang!
Another weekend without trains, but another weekend closer to getting them back in action. We started working on the basement rehab this week. pulling up old carpet on the steps, removing a bajillion tacks, and rebuilding steps that were falling apart beneath the carpet. new moldings on the staircase and the exposed woodwork painted, I cut all the pieces to fit, applied a coat of Henry 430 adhesive and started to apply the peel & stick vinyl plank and trim. Now to pull the rest of the basement carpet. (Oh my achin back!)
Here's a before and after pic....
At this rate, it may take a few weeks, even with my FIL's help. Oh well. The end result will be awesome.
