Transcript:
We've taken the floor up and we found out, like I said before, that the 4x4’s are in the wrong place, are in between the floor joists. We're going to end up putting 4x4 on the floor joists, here and over there.
And before we do that, we're going to support a line of blocks from between the 4x4s here and along that side and along this side, just because we can, well, we'll make things better. So that's what we're doing. We're digging it out. We're going to wedge it up tight.
We're pre drilling holes after wedging up everything and blocks. We’re pre-drilling the holes into this hardwood. And then we're putting three inch screws. Which it did not have. It just had one nail on each end tongue groove to hold it together. So we're making things better. Not the same as it was. In 1914, they didn't have battery power, didn't have very much in the way of screws. So this would have been something that really wasn't possible. You need a pry bar there?
Probably, yeah. But we have one over here. Did we find a board to fit that Tim? I sure did. But I was going to say who knows where it went. There it is. Ok Drew.
Everything is fastened now we put in a new 4x4s, where... On the top of the floor joists. So, it won't let the floor buckle up. We put two of them because both of those 4x4s were in between floor joists. And it was buckling up the floor, all the floors are now fastened with screws and all in this area anyway.
And we have wood underneath areas where there's holes. Somebody had put a metal tin can nailed it over there. So we're put a piece of wood in there later, but now we've got solid floor. And a way we go. See you guys later.
