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.

Craigslist Find

I'm still using a lot of old Ikea Expedit stuff for storage.  It works, and is flexible, but not fancy.  Been on the lookout for something better.  Ran across this on CL for only $300, and got them to deliver. Right now it's just staged in the open area of the basement.  I should be able to finish the framing and drywall in the old theater, and I'll move these in there.

Basement Bathroom Progress

 Just for reference, here is the original, claustrophobic, non-code-compliant basement bathroom. And here is progress on the much larger bathroom, even though to overall footprint is the same size. The shower has been expanded to fill the entire width, and the ceiling raised in the shower area.  The original was a generic shower stall, and was very dark and cramped.  This will be much brighter and while the dimensions are small, won't feel nearly as cramped.
