Hardly leaves you any time to make that crib or dresser or changing table... ----- Original Message ----- From: Dan Rossi To: Blind Handyman List Sent: Thursday, June 04, 2009 10:20 AM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Of doors and walls.
As I sit here at work, two guys are at my house bricking up my kitchen door. This was a door leading from my kitchen to the back steps. Since I put the deck in, and opened the dining room wall for French doors out onto the deck, the kitchen door became unnecessary. Last evening, I gently removed the trim from the doorway and the small window next to the door. I removed the Aluminum storm door and trim from the outside, and cleaned up the enormous amount of black soot that poured out of the wall as I pulled off the trim. The masons will be bricking up the small window and the lower part of the doorway. I'll install a window in the upper part of the door hole, then frame in the inside wall. I'll leave the plaster work for later since we will be doing a major kitchen project in the fall and will have a professional do the plaster work when I am done ripping out walls, ceiling, stripping the plaster off the chimney to do that exposed brick look, and pull all the cabinets down. So many projects, so little time. -- Blue skies. Dan Rossi Carnegie Mellon University. E-Mail: [email protected] Tel: (412) 268-9081 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
