in the walls.



we discovered that one ceiling was lower than the others during demo, there where a few ideas floating around to explain this, but the only way was to open it up, starting late one evening myself and mike went at it with an ikea lamp a saws all and a big crow bar, a couple of swings in i started to see moulding appear, buried beneath insulation and more two by fours we found the original 1912 oak work, and the best part is that we had exactly what was up there in our designs.. down to the last measurement.

you cant fight good design. we are assesing now weather its a strip it and rebuild or repair and paint.. it is beat up pretty bad some splits in the wood and lots of holes from nailing the ceiling on beneath.. ill keep you posted.
