demolition man (and woman)
i drove a hammer through a wall - y'all! on purpose. and it was scary at first but then i got desensitized pretty fast. we demo-ed (if that's a word) the bath area last evening. it took us three hours but this is what we accomplished:
- took out the vanity, mirror and lights
- sawed out shower enclosure (inhaled fiberglass dust in bucketfuls)
- ripped out pocket door - frame and all
- ripped dry wall off two walls
- pulled out a 2x4 to expand the opening going into the shower and toiler area
- ripped out carpeting and some vinyl off floor
the place is now ready for building but first i have to clean up the mess a little.
and when i say little i mean a lot.
thank heavens, james had a sawsall - otherwise this work could have taken us a whole day. i'll try to upload some pictures of the systematic destruction.
