Staining the Floors

We got the floors sanded , filled and stained yesterday. One of my good buddys came over and put his skills to work running the sanding machines. He did an amazing job and has quite the touch. We than layed down a coat of wood filler , sanded one more time then screened the floor for the final run. We put down nutmeg stain by hand and the results were dramatic. The stain brought out the quartersawn characteristics better than I could have imagined. tomorrow another one of my buddies is coming over to work his magic for the finishing coats. He owned a hardwood business for years and has an amazing eye for detail when it comes to the finishing work of wood floors. Until then, take a look.
