John...under "Personal Replies"...I read your post to me asking for photos and descriptions of remodeling I'm doing to Bear....I'm not sure just WHERE to do this...Is this the Forum here? Or should it be somewhere else...?
Could you reply here and tell me... I really am sorry to be so much trouble...
I just responded to your 'personal' email to me there...and didn't even know you'd sent it until I went on there tonight... so, maybe you won't see this 'post' for a while either.
I was just telling "CatStream" on that Forum, that I'm almost done with the painting on the inside panel of my Entrance Door...and will be posting the photos soon of it. And other things... The other thing I'm working on right now...is the TOP of the 'credenza'...the wiring of the stereo components into the credenza, and the Re-attachment of the new (fold-out) tables in the Salon. They (the tables) are all new (1" MDF board), with new formica (burgandy), and 1-1/4" Aluminum T-Trim on the edges.... Just GORGEOUS!!!
I'm also silking the bedroom, and am building a 'sit-down' (make-up) vanity in the built in dresser that was stock. I got a "Sabre Saw" (Jig-Saw), and I've cut a hole in the top of it, and I'm building a box that attaches under the hole; I've cut out (sacrificed) 2 little drawers and 2 doors, to make a "KNEE HOLE"...(MY CHOICE!)...and I'm installing (with a Piano Hinge) a "flip-out" shelf that will cover that hole when not used, and when I need to make up my FACE!!
,,I'll flip the 'lid' out and the hole will open up to have a couple of plastic organizers in the hole for make-up (ONLY a WOMAN could possibly appreciate the value of this)...It is all the perfect height for me when I'll sit at this VERY broad and CUSHY ottoman I'm using there. (for my very broad & cushy BUM)..
I also removed the doors of the side cupboard (which were made accessible to the bath area...and I turned them around to be accessible to the vanity! (for hair appliances, etc.) There is just enough room in there for the single bed (at an angle), and this dresser/vanity/ottoman...and a tiny bit of floor space.
BEATS having to bang your head to get in and out of bed the way it was before!
........Ok...enuff for now... Photos will be by mid September...promise. I can't do it before then,,,because I'm going to California to visit my kids.
