    Made it to the cabin this weekend and put up some boards in the bathroom. Had to temporarily pull the sink so that we could put some boards behind it. Made a shelf out of the existing wall. The gaps in the corners will be covered up by trim. We also had a gap where the shower met the boards on the wall. We are going to put a board over that and use it for hanging towels. All quartersawn sycamore. 17474412_10211008241898531_1965790027_o.jpg 17521676_10211008241858530_177913584_o.jpg 17521975_10211008241818529_1429620621_o.jpg 17547543_10211008242018534_682795385_o.jpg 17547605_10211008241978533_83275731_o.jpg 17571322_10211008242058535_425419936_o.jpg

    Well done. That place is really looking sharp. I never knew how nice sycamore could look.

    Thanks! Its funny, the cabin is along a creek bottom so plenty of sycamores close by and close to the mill. Did a little research and liked the look of it quartersawn. It actually looks even better with a coat of poly. Gets a rosey/reddish color in the dark spots. After we had done 6 or so trees, the quartersawing was wearing us out lol! Its alot of work on a manual mill.

    Thanks! We didnt have enough storage under the sink so it seemed like a good idea.

    Red oak is going on the floors. Pretty sure thats what is going on the ceiling too based on what we have dried in the stack.
