What used to be a radiator on the west wall of this room is now the location of a new door which opens onto a 14 x 17 2nd floor deck atop the new addition on the back of the house.  Wallace designed and Roy Hoffert fabricated the sturdy industrial shelving.

No lack of auditory stimulation in this house.  You name a music  genre, he probably has at least a "taste" of it.  I hear tell there is a form of cataloging to the collection but I have not figured it out yet.

CUSTOM SHELVING

     For a month I have had the lumber and intentions of building shelving in the butler's pantry.  As far as I got was the lower shelf and the counter.

The counter is made by joining two 2 x 8 boards

The counter is leveled and squared with the wall

The counter is attached with my trusty nail gun

This past weekend Donnie and I worked to complete the pantry.  Sawing, squaring, routing, nailing, gluing, and screwing.....

We build the shelving from several 1 x 12's

1/2 way there

 In place and trimmed, the shelving awaits painting
