Well worth a project on it’s own. Can’t wait to see the whole thing.

This looks really nice right now Nate but it will really “pop” when it finally gets finish applied.
I’m waiting to see that.

Thank You Paul. Ya, the finish will really make is sing I thing. Right now I have it hiding under a small piece of plywood until I can get some sanding sealer on it. That holly picks up everything!

Eddie,

It is I who should thank you. The silent sacrifice of parents and wives, children and husbands like yourself is much harder than any we soldiers lay on the line. You have to face the unknown everyday. The fear of a phone call or a uniform knocking at the door. No, your burden is much heavier than mine. There are days I am exhausted but it is my lot. I was born to serve and God saw it differently that I wasn’t supposed to serve a full 30 years. So thank you for your sacrifice and for raising a son who was willing to give so much for our country.

I was also a medic so I know how hard it can be! My thoughts and prayers are with him and you!

Thank you for your kindness and encouragement, truly!

Thanks Erwin, me too:). It will be a few months as I have several other projects in the floor that need to be done before that but it is coming.

This is an incredible piece of work! I just read your blog and now understand a little about the time and effort you have invested in this project. I’m looking forward to seeing the scene when it has a finish on it.

Very nice, love the work and inlaying it in end grain I’m guessing made a bit more tricky. Great work and nice post.

Jr,

Thank you very much. It is a big investment but it is worth it. I hope to get a professional photo of the whole floor when it is totally done. Then I can move the machines in and start working on the walls:)

Very Respectfully,

Nate
