Stairs Recut

Had to re-cut the stairs taking 1/8" incrementally off each step.  All but the landing are done.  The treads are still 2x8's.  I will replace them with 3/4" subfloor which will be topped with whatever tread material I end up using.

I also built some temporary scaffolding out of the scrap wood
I've already put some of the drywall up in the above picture, and finished it below.
Just one piece at the top, and one at the bottom right to do, but don't need the scaffolding for that.  I took the scaffolding apart and stored it in the bike room, as I'll have to put it back up with I do the float and tape work.

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.
