    Was able to get some time off work, and got the floor in the loft. I think it was 96 sq ft. It came out pretty good. Now back downstairs to finish up the bathroom. More pics to come. 17203747_10210859795387461_1987254742_n.jpg 17203964_10210859795627467_1523373082_n.jpg 17238819_10210859795667468_1187860833_n.jpg 17270310_10210859795307459_978423475_n.jpg 17270870_10210859795467463_624754395_n.jpg

    Lots of wood there.

    Wood is good.

    I am thinking the floor is laminate? Looks great.

    What'cha using the room for?

    Thanks!! The floor is 3/4" oak boards that we cut on the sawmill (lots of them lol). The room will be a bedroom in the cabin.

    Thanks! We ripped all the boards to the same size and made sure the table saw was cutting real square. I had to hand plane the sides on quite a few boards to get the fit just right.

    Thanks! We put the verticals there to cover up seams. The trusses were not made perfect (thats what happens when you get a couple amateurs making trusses lol), and so the boards didnt line up great there. Also covered up nail holes.
