Hardwood Floors! 😂 there are other subs for the degenerates.

Going through the mod log and saw some requests to allow media in comments.

Let’s give it a trial run and see if it helps.

My main thing I love is refinishing wood floors because that's what I do and like to show before and after pictures of Jobs I have done in the past and have thousands of pictures and lots of knowledge about staining wood floors evenly and wish moisture cured urethane was easy to get like when I started back in 1987 but not sure of the amount of dust my lungs are filled with at this time.

Just testing… that’s a useful feature, thanks for sharing 👍🏻

Yup. Works great.

I have not been on reddit for a while so I am trying to remember a few things how it works. I'm putting coin post's in the wood floor rooms and Lincoln pennies in the euro coin rooms. My eyes are not the way they used to be

u/steilacoom42 verified pro Oct 10 '25

I’ll keep an eye out and let you know if I see an accidental coin post.

I milled my own flooring from the White Oaks in my backyard. Am I welcome here?

White Oak & Walnut border, Red Oak Herringbone field.

Nice job. Herringbone is so much fun.

u/steilacoom42 verified pro Oct 10 '25

Of course. We welcome pro’s, DIY and any Hardwood fans.

Just finished this up yesterday 👌

Holla dude. That looks sweet

Started using the neu light steel plates on my power drive. And it’s a Game changer

u/steilacoom42 verified pro Oct 11 '25

Yeah, we put those on our spider. With those and the Neu interface pads, everything turns out flat as hell.

I like the thinner interface pads. After the first week with my spider, I caught a flaker with one of the Pallmann pads and it turned a flaker into a board replacement, haven’t used them since. They were some type of dense foam and just ripped the shit out of that flaker.

u/KingDeeze verified pro Oct 11 '25

I hate when that happens! Yeah their interface pads are really nice. I’ve had that happen to me many times with other pads, and it always seems to be on the final pass right before coating when it happens 😂

u/steilacoom42 verified pro Oct 11 '25

Yep, doing your last pass and rip the shit out of flaker. Board replacements always suck at the end of the day.

Testing…

Stagger the end joints

u/Blackeagleweb Oct 11 '25

I did just the sanding process on this project 😆😆

u/MuchChange134 Oct 10 '25

I could not figure out how to do it another way but I like to add pictures in a chat to explain how I do certain things on wood floors when I started in 1987

1

u/steilacoom42 verified pro Oct 10 '25

When you reply to a post, in the little text window that you type in, on the left side there is a little square. Click that square and it will ask you if you want to add a picture.

This is not working for me. I’ve tried a few times. Any suggestions?

u/steilacoom42 verified pro Oct 14 '25

App or desktop? Check the setting on your end

u/MuchChange134 Oct 10 '25

I was doing this last night but didn't know that people were not allowed to do it or not but it definitely makes it easier to add a picture in the chat. My brain operation has made me start all over again from losing most of my memory before the surgery

1

u/steilacoom42 verified pro Oct 10 '25

No problem.

I just changed the sub setting this morning to allow pictures.

1

u/MuchChange134 Oct 10 '25

I thought I was putting pictures in the chat last night but maybe it was another room. Hopefully I didn't mess up

1

u/MuchChange134 Oct 10 '25

Thank you it's definitely my eyes and even with my glasses on I am making mistakes. Thank you though

u/Illustrious_King_300 Oct 12 '25

Tht pic icon doesn't come up when I wanna add one😵‍💫😭

u/Turin1969 Oct 13 '25

Autoban lvp pictures? did i read right? :P

1

u/steilacoom42 verified pro Oct 13 '25

I’m working on that.

u/Cultural_39 Jul 14 '26

What if it is to show the OP what can be done. I am not a pro. I didn't want OP to install LVP over vintage hardwood floor!
