floors, trim, gas cook top working

Sometimes sanding is not enough and a stripper has to be used.  This means someone has to go to the basement and move cardboard into position to catch any drips of the stripper.  Floors may look like they are tight but after 90 years, it isn't so.  The end result to the right here has much character and will look warm and cozy when finished with polyurethane.

The gas cook top hookup had to be completed to show the plumbing inspector who didn't come because of the snow that is falling.   Nice to know it works though.  More of the trim around the baseboards and windows is going in too.   Unfortunately, it doesn't photograph really well even with the limited sunshine outside.
