No.   why should they of been longer ones?!?!    Did think about not using them but thought it didnt look out of place so used them any way.    Their is a double socket in the floor in the room with the grand piano  you can see it in the pictures

I just noticed both hearths have them.  I'm not saying to rip them up, but I wouldn't have used them there  [poke]

I am also just busting your chops a bit though (which I'm sure can be taken the wrong way over the interwebz, but it is in jest, and I surly wouldn't do it if your work was crap)  [tongue]

Everything looks good.

I see why I just checked out the other pictures and both fire places have a small piece!  Blame DEAN for the other one!  I was at the Gadget show so I couldnt keep an eye on him  [wink]

Am I being silly or has the thread name been changed?!  Im sure it was just called Projects Galley    but now it has JMB on the end.

Blame Simon he picked every board in that floor
 
Jmb round the fireplace did you domino the wrap round too the other floor if you get what I mean. I'm sure the tounge and groove wouldn't match up. How was it done , REALLY love your work, wish icouldget experience too learn and do more complicated work, sick of doing facing and skirting lol

All the mitre frames around the fire place I made before hand and the mitres are dominod  together.      

I cut the floor boards down to 110mm  cutting the Grooves off leaving the Tongue on.    So the frames had a tongue all round. So the boards which go into it will have to have a groove. So like you can see in one of the fire places the boards are notched round. It would be difficult to add a fixed tongue to them but  loose tongue is possible but pointless if you just leave the tongue on the frame around the fire place.    

Its easier to stick a groove into a board than making a tongue for a board which isnt to difficult but if you your slightly out of square its hassle to recut the shoulders to fit

Atleast with a groove you make the groove deeper so you can adjust the cut on the end of the board to fit.  

I set up my OF2200 router in my CMS  so I could easily put the grooves into the boards when they where cut the tongue and ''new'' grooves matched up perfectly.  

I didnt want to use dominos  because if the board was to shrink away you would see the dominos  and not a continuous tongue.

JMB.. I see you still have the fun job ahead of you of working out the doors for this (sink unit bottom left)  [big grin]

Without seeing the full section of the cabinet, I would propose a tambour type door for the front, perhaps backed with polyethyline sheet, rather than canvass, due to the damp location.

That is some very nice work there.  I think the bevels on the oak edging at the top of the stairs is a little too deep for such small pieces, but hey, I'm being really picky here  [embarassed]

What are the drawer boxes made off, construction details & did you make it all or did Dean bail you out again  ;D

I totally agree with you!  

I was block planning away and I had to chisel the top tread cus it was already fitted

It  was an after thought I came up with the frame work around

and I ended up making little boo boo and had to make the bevel a little bigger
which meant all of it had to be bigger  at first I thought aaaah  be alrite but then when laying the floor I was like Dam its bit big wish it was smaller
but its gotta be sanded so ill sand the face abit which will hopefully lower it a little ............. maybe ......lol

YEah true Dean just the bevels are a little on the big side though cud of been smaller.  It will look better once stained cus they will look black like the flooring just had to find a stain to match think found something which will match the flooring.   Gotta do da sometime yay! Love staining sanding  NOT!

French polish .... No fun at all glad my mate Dan loved doing it!   I think I might get him to do these stairs also seems to like doing stuff like this cus he really got into french polishing! He was on if for few days.  I soon get bored.

The draw boxes are Dominoed!  I used tulip for the sides and 12mm ash face MDF for the bottom as Ash seems to be a very close match to tulip. 

I used Blum softclose runners.

No I have not had Dean help me on these jobs.  Dean helped me with doing most of the flooring on this job apart from the bit of flooring you can in the pictures upstairs and downstairs which is like only 20% off the total flooring done in the house
