Speaking of wood floors

I had 2 old furnace holes that had plywood in them, I had to 'finger' them in, and blend in and make it disappear.
I'm the same way about transitions; I'd rather just run the floor thru them.

Even it's more work, and thought in layout. I'll take at least an hour or two figuring out how every board is going to terminate along the walls.
 
Neck is on fire. Flooring is a real struggle for me.

got a late start on it after doing some running around. It's pretty, but always going to look dusty. Oh well, not my choice, so everything she bitches about it,I'll remind her who chose it.

Mix 1/4 cup of vinegar to every gallon of mop water and add a few drops of an essential oil in a fragrance you like. Then mop the floors. If your house gets a lot of dust naturally because of the area, you may have to do this periodically to keep it from appearing hazy or dusty.

Floors look awesome though. Amazing how nice new flooring makes a room look.
 
Oh and @Peter Gozintite, I feel your pain brother! I actually have a spare bedroom that I still need to finish my flooring project from 5 years ago. I was cutting the flooring with a table saw I had under the carport. The unfinished room is the farthest room from the carport where the saw was. So every time I had to cut the planks to fit I had to get up and go to the saw, then walk all the way back to see if it fit....sometimes I had to re-cut it again.

The getting up and down and all the back and forth to the saw fucking wore me out...I closed the door on that spare room after deciding it would make a great "junk" room.

Before I decide to tackle that room again, I think I'll break down and buy one of those mechanical floor plank cutters. That way I don't ever have to get up off the floor or walk to the saw again.
