I love my hardwood floor!! - Revisit to Household tips by Grumpy

[Brokenjaw]

Tools I need to borrow/rent: Square, Chop saw (Circular & Miter box), Nail gun and accessories, and now floor sander.

Yes a nail gun, BUT not a regular nail gun...


you know this right? What you need for hard wood floor is a ....


You don't need a circular saw for this project but I do recomend buying one, good thing to have around the house, you are right you need a chop saw(MIter) another good investment to have around the house. Don't forget the knee pads man, I can't stress that enough.

(Already talked about running the wood the long way (25') so that the wood will hit the support studs and that we will start at the door and move towards the heater.)

You don't have to worry about hitting support studs, but I would sugest not running all the boards the same length, you can do it the way you are planning, but stagering the sizes makes it look much nicer. :thumbs-up:

Good Luck!!
