Here’s a video of one of the #mullions being run through the #planer … The piece is being tilted by the #jig I made so it can create the desired angle (See my last picture). I had to run through each mullion at the same height so that they were identical. To get the correct angle I lowered the planer almost 1/16th of an inch each pass through. I completed approximately 7 passes! Sometimes it can be difficult to follow 100 year old #design, but its not impossible! #customhomeservicesllc #customdesign #custom #customwoodworking #carpentry #carpenter #dewalt #doitrightthefirsttime #windows #remodelproject #remodel #oldhouseremodel

This is part of a project we’re working on. I had to remake 8 mullions for the old windows that got all new casing. We had to choose: run mullions though table saw and do lots of sanding or build a jig for the planer and run stock though, we chose the fun way:-) #remodelproject #remodel #trimcarpentry #oldhouseremodel #finewoodworking #festool #funonthejob #doitrightthefirsttime

More trim work on my small remodel job, matching new baseboard to the old one. Yellow glue, biscuits, and construction adhesive against old plaster- I win! #remodel #remodelproject #trimcarpenter #trimcarpentry #festool #hundredyearoldhouse

This is what I’m up against!:-) This old house is not making it easy for me, plaster walls are ‘fun’. EVERY part of this window is truly custom . #customanything #carpentry #customwoodworking #remodelproject #remodel #trimcarpentry #trim

Here’s the section of #woodflooring we put down today… Like most old things, this flooring was stubborn! Some of this flooring is as old as the house (Built in 1915) so it has been sanded, stained, and painted multiple times. Thankfully we were able to work with it (hammers, chisels, wedges, elbow grease) and made the customer happy 🙂 #customcarpentry #floor #flooring #carpenter #customcarpentry #remodelproject #recycle #oldhouseremodel

This is a quick shot showing some of the cleaning process that goes into cleaning up wood flooring. Dirt and dust has crusted (pictured on the LEFT side) on the tongue of the flooring, but it’s nothing a wire brush cant fix! The result from the same piece is pictured on the RIGHT side. #carpentry #carpenter #woodfloor #floor #remodelproject #remodel #recycle #cleaning #oldhouseremodel #overhaul

Today we’re having fun with some old wood flooring. This flooring has been sanded, painted, and walked on for decades (maybe closer to a century!) but we’re going to try and restore it back to it’s original condition… Let’s just say that our #Delta X5 is getting a workout today! #carpentry #carpenter #woodfloor #floor #remodelproject #remodel #oldhouseremodel #recycle #maple #trimcarpenter #trimcarpentry
