We'd already removed the carpets, so we knew that floor boards needed replacing. The whole place had been covered in a single horrible green carpet, and over the years certain boards had been replaced with odd pine snippets, obviously just to make do. So of course, doing the modern thing, removing all carpets and sanding back the floors everything needs to look the same... or at least vaguely similar!
The task, according to Bunnings Hardware was to remove offending boards, simply and easily using a saw, a chisel and a hammer. All sounds simple. I had the tools so i'll just rattle through these. The wood came from a recycled place near the city (A saga in itself to get that back without a ute or stationwagon!
2 days later and the place still looked like bombed out beruit, but my confidence had actually improved and i kinda knew what i was doing! (its all in the dress sense)... the end result actually looked pretty good... but if its taught me one thing.... get a professional ;-).
