Hole Removal

The old oven vent and plumbing pipe holes in the kitchen were long overdue for patching.  Both holes were originally round, but the larger one needed to be cut square to patch it properly. Here it is with one replacement piece installed.

Here with the wood pieces installed.  At this point the backside has been filled with Great Stuff foam and 2" of solid foam for insulation, on both the large hole and the small one.  In the image above you can see the first failed attempt to just use great stuff, but it would not stick and fill the area properly without the solid foam for support.

And here it is with one coat of paint on it.  
There is some fresh paint on the beam, the rest of the beam will need a full coat as it's only had one coat on it.

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.

Back Wall Done

 Finally 100% done with the back wall of the house.  Windows installed, trim done, and paint. The windows will probably get pretty messy until I have time to install the edging and river rock along the edge, but that will come later.
