2nd Story pictures.
Doing this reminded me that I never posted pictures from the redo. Going to dump them here in no particular order.
This is the link to the youtube video I made of the stairs. It was a 'happy new baby boy' present to the wife and one of a kind.

Ripping out the shelving in the old monstrous walk in/bed room.
Furing the rafters with Dad. In order to get more insulation in the rafters we added full dimension 2x2's to the bottom making the rafters a full six inches. Let us put in R19 rather than R11. This is what I didn't do in the attic space because I need the height.
What is now the craft room just after I had painted. You can see the old opening into the storage room.
Ripping out the old sheeting in the craft room, you can see the lack of insulation. Again that is the opening to the storage room.
Main bed room, after insulating but before moving the wall.
Running the heating duct.
Dad hanging vapor barrier after insulating.
Putting carpet down with dad.
Old dividing wall. We moved this to the center of the space to make two rooms of the same size.
Taping around one of 5 new windows. Of all the things we did, these were the best.
Showing some of the tear out. The big opening is split into two windows, one in each room. This is the boy's room, or it will be when his mother is ready to stick him in there.
Mother in law running car down the materials ramp. Everything was dumped out this and slid down timbers to the ground. The sheetrock all came up this way too. By the way I do not recomend remodling in three weeks prior to pregnancy with your mother in law around. Message me if you want to know why.
Glowing stairs, treads are made from boards removed from the wall sheeting.
Door to the boy's room, still needs trim.
Treads still have the milling marks.
