Already getting tired of The blogings, maybe the kitchen reno will be different. How Kristen does The Facebooks everyday is amazing. Glad I stuck with My Space.
My carpenter, Jim Affolter is amazing, couldn't be happier. Although I haven't received the "Final" bill yet. He did come up with a great solution to matching the two new columns (corners) with the existing ones. As most know, lumber today isn't the same size as lumber of yesteryear. My columns were made out of 1x12, overlapping so each side was 13". Jim contacted Schutte and had them plane down 2"x"12"x16' Douglas Fir so that we could match the original 13" square of the original columns. Bravo!
The pulley system they use to lower the old columns and raise the new. Close to 300lb each.
