Nook Done For Now

All code approved and framed up.

There's no point in doing the trim or painting the bookshelf until I get the drywall floated and taped, and I don't plan to do that till after I do the work upstairs.  Won't look like much till then, but it's fully functional. I'll probably get a twin size futon mattress that's about 4" thick and cut it down to fit as a seating pad.

Now I'll finish re-cutting the stairs, and when that is done I'll cover that part of the stairs next to the support wall.

Bathroom Waterproofing

Waterproofing the shower.  1 primer coat, 5 coats on the walls, 7 on the pan.  Tested and approved by the inspector.  Next is upper pan and then tile.

Harry Potter Hole

Harry Potter Hole, as my friends started calling it, has had its internal trim installed, and I've put paint on the shelving below it.  This will look good once the flooring is installed.

Ugly Float and Tape

Getting started on the float and tape job on the upstairs half bath.  Pretty ugly so far. This is just the first coat, which is really intended to just get the tape down.  Looks ugly, but it's actually not bad.  Won't know for sure how it will look till the last coat.  Plan is to do a texture-free level 5 finish.  Not sure if I'll be able to pull it off or not, worst case if it doesn't pan out I can just throw some texture up.
