Some of the Flooring Steps and Materials.

We Started with Rough cut, "rustic" Vancouver Island Douglas Fir 5" flooring,  then let it "rest" in the building while I prepped the sub-floor.  Which meant I had to grind down some high spots of the T&G 3/4 ply. Then I laid down #15 paper in order to reduce the chance of the floor squeaking. 

Then, after sorting though the flooring material to pick the best pieces to be installed.

After stapling the floor in place, the hard part arrived.

Filling, sanding and refilling and sanding and refilling and sanding.
