If you notice in the picture above, the hvac vent is above the new grid (upper left). The vent ended up lining up with one of the main spars. I was focused on symmetry of the tiles in the room; the vent was secondary.

So I needed to modify the vent location as well as to lower it to the level of the tiles. That meant moving the wood support and extending the pipe. As luck would have it, I had a flexible fitting I used to both extend and lower the vent... and the wooden support was only held by one nail at each end. Easy peasy.

Making the laundry room as utilitarian as possible... I decided to add in shelves... above the laundry sink and above the space where the deep freeze will be located shortly.

I planed and sanded the window sill, then used wood filler so the trim will look like it's one solid piece...

It's really coming along nicely!

A couple coats of the "Eternal Snow" trim paint and that one is off the check list. Then I'll have to go back to crawling around on my knees again. Baseboards suck.

It seemed like it was covering well so hopefully no second coat needed but I'll wait until it's dry to be sure...



This should actually go on the rec room thread but I'm lazy... lol
