| test fitting all the joints one last time before onsite assembly glue-up 4" redwood strips 1/4" thick weaved into frame |
  |
| Steam bending the weaved boards was necessary to prevent breaking |
 |
| Privacy panel was supported by (3) 2 1/2" galvanized steel pipes pile driven >30" below grade. there was no way to dig any post holes or pour cement without destroying the existing vegetation |
 |
| 6 months later |
 |
| 1 year after installation. Almost seams silly to have weaved anything now. |

| The flooring turns into each doorway with no gaps or edges of flooring showing anywhere bc all the door jambs are undercut so they sit on top of the flooring. A lot of times you'll see a nice floor but the doorways look like someone traced the floor around the door jambs bc you can see a gap where the jamb and floor just butt together. Very unsightly and this is also an area that down the road will suffer damage when the floor expands in the winter buckling bc there is no gap around the edge for seasonal wood movement. |
 |
| Hall closet this is where you look if you want to know how good your floor guys are... no gaps or traced door jambs |
 |
| Third bedroom off hallway Room transitions are required on floating floors for seasonal movement. These transition pieces were made from leftover flooring too match perfectly |
