This Week’s Featured Pulp Improvement
Pulp Bath Reno 2
Pulp Bath Reno 2
Last week we spoke of the need to begin the Pulp Bath Reno 2 due to the fact that we now needed to access the drain from Pulp Bath Reno 1 shower base. So that is what we are doing. That said, figured we’d share a couple before photo’s to give this Reno some perspective.
First up, this is the main bath that sits next to the main (primary) bedroom. Previous owners had renovated it at some point, so it was certainly functional, but…….! But what? Well, it had a walk in shower (good), toilet (not great), jacuzzi bath tub (not fans of), a huge wall cabinet/drawer piece (with doors and drawers that didn’t really open due to being painted a few too many times), and last but not least, a single stand alone pedestal sink with no surrounding cabinetry or place to land much more than a bottle of hand soap and an electric toothbrush (not extremely user friendly for use by two)!
The plan? Pretty much to put our handprint on it and make it into the bathroom of our dreams! New tile everywhere, a new soak tub with no water jets at all, new toilet, new shower accessories (with new tile and slight layout changes), a custom cabinet/shelving combo in place of the old storage wall cabinet, new lighting, and, best of all, a two sink vanity unit! Okay, we’ll have to extend the wall a bit to make room for the two sink vanity, and then have a few things to do for other rooms, that will require opening up the floors (new pendant light in the space directly below for example). All in all, it’s going to be awesome!
Now, back to Bath 1 Reno, we’ve nearly opened up the ceiling below enough to get at the plumbing to aforementioned new shower base. We’ll get on that today and once drain for the shower is re-worked we can get back up in there to tile up that new shower basin and surrounding walls/floor that had to be removed to get the old shower pan out. It’s a journey but we’re a lot closer now than we were at the start!
Progress pics adjacent and below, plus some pre-Reno 2 bath shots. See you next week!

The 1800 Project
Here’s the trailer to the exciting new movie coming out this summer (okay, so maybe not really a movie, more a couple long form video’s to document the start to finish of this project)! Truth is, had a little fun with a movie trailer template they have and this is the “story” of the 1800 Project to date. Enjoy!
Innocent
So it’s 2020 and the pandemic is getting into full swing, it was a good time to do some recording. Years ago I had written a song called “Innocent” which was based off a nice, solid and repeating base line (which I played using the top E string on the guitar). Song was pretty much the result of watching a lot of crime shows and just plain watching the news. Original was done using a 4-Track recorder and while intent was there, could not really do it justice. Flash forward to 2020, GarageBand and multi-track recording from home, plus the ability to share and get contributions from some of your musician friends, the results are in! Special bonus, a co-workers two children doing some back up vocals, while practicing social distancing out in the garage/driveway, and well, making the best of a very different and trying time. Hope you enjoy!
The Ray Harm and Guy Coheleach Limited Edition Prints Prints
We recently mentioned that we had been gifted a fine collection of Ray Harm and Guy Coheleach “limited edition” art prints which we intend to eventually sell here from the website (will be setting up a page in our shop collection). Currently doing a complete inventory of what we have and documenting all of that. Wanted to share a little taste of what we are talking about so will feature a pic or two each week until we get that shop page up and running. This week’s pic sample prints below!
