Yeah Amo, I'm NACHI.

A construction injury sort of forced me into this. This is NOT an easy place to work. Three of the surrounding towns were either "mill" or "railroad" towns. Most of the houses were built 80-90 years ago with minimal foundations and with knob and tube wiring. The railroad town was built in a canyon with lots of seeping water everywhere. The plus side, if you are a builder or love wood is that when the mills built the towns they had only the best materials. I recently saw a patch of roof sheathing in Sugar Pine, three pieces, 3/4" X 18" X 44 feet with eleven tiny knots. Sheathing!!!!

The original kitchen backsplashes are CLEAR sugar pine 2x18x14 feet.

Oh, and they have spiders on them. (gotta stay on topic):lol:
