Tilt-Shift?

Found this thing. Shot in Boondall, a couple of weeks ago. Very cool.

Show, how you doin?

I couldn't be bothered watching crap on tv tonight, so I sat and watched the skies.

Got the following photos. Skip through if you're bored with nature, and stuff.

Furniture

Last week we had the floors sanded, polished and lacquered.
First (rough) sand, before the edges were done:


After final sand and lacquer (they're not really that dark).


And this evening we assembled some furniture that we've had sitting downstairs in their boxes for 5 months...






Photos and units... (reprise)

So I accidentally deleted a post, several months back. Heaps of photos and witty banter. Oops. Here are the photos again...

Bathroom extractor vent out thru eaves.


Vent tube.


The LAST sheet of gyp board going up, in the bathroom




Nailing down the under-tile sheeting in the bathroom. Turns out either I suck at nails, or that stuff is hard to nail.


Floor completed (bathroom)


Bath mixer and spout plumbing (by licenced professional)


Bath support frame (by rank amateur) (for LOTS of hours)


Checking into studs for bath




Bath support frame


Bath support and end hobb


Frame sans bath


"Form-work" for bath support concrete


The state of our living room for several months


My Bride, cooking in our new kitchen


Completed bath support frame and conrete.


Water in bath to settle it into the concrete as it cured. And guess what? No squeaks or grinding. Thanks HEAPS, Glen.


Villa-board throughout bathroom. Nailed every 150mm on every stud.


Plasterer came and set all our walls. Didn't even complain too much about the shoddy workmanship, so I can't have done too badly hanging it...




Sweeping the plaster dust from ALL the walls and ceilings.


So there you go again. Sorry about that.
