Basic Home Improvements

Time for more Home Improvements
The Fuzz has been a bit slack keeping up with things here lately. So here is a bit of an update.
With our new Sliding Glass Door installed, it was time for The Fuzz to tackle the Baseboards that he had promised His Sweetie a couple years ago. After all, there was no use in putting in something he would only have to tear up again. But now his excuses were gone.
In the top Pix, you will notice a rat hole in the corner. This was here when we bought the trailer. While installing the new door, The Fuzz had removed a section of wall. He used a piece of this to continue the wainscoting, thus covering said rat hole.
He, and His Sweetie had purchased several 1X4s from the Home Improvement Store, and ripped a bevel along one edge to make Baseboards.
Here's a look at how it came out.
The Fuzz has been working on this a little at a time, as the opportunities arrive. It will be admitted that he does somehow manage to find time for other projects. But the living room is finished now, and he has even made a start on the bed room!
Obviously he is not working on it at this moment, choosing to attempt to catch up on this blog instead.
Here's a look at some of this great Baseboard with a relocated phone jack.
