    We've done plywood in several rooms. I'm a pro woodworker with a shop t pretty much build anything in but, you can do what we did without a pro shop. The way you cut your boards to size is the most safest and simplest. I have a track saw so that's what we used. After we had all the plywood cut down, we ran a small round over on al sides with a small router. We then sanded all the planks, I sprayed them with 2 coats of amber shellac, and then i sprayed 5 coats of a water born polyurethane on them. Let the planks dry and then put the floors down. We brought them in the house, rolled out the roofing felt and then nailed the floors down. The floors are beautiful and are holding up with no problems. We never tell anyone they're plywood, and they've all babbled over them. You have nice looking floors, and thanks for sharing your video.

    That is truly an amazing process! Those are going to look SO NICE!!! I prefer wood floors. But when we built our house, it was through a builder with limited flooring options. When I found out their "upgrade" version of an "solid wood flooring" at best was veneered flooring with limited plank width and color options, we decided to just go with the base level vinyl plank flooring and oddly enough it's been amazing, especially with a dog and their nails. I'm amazed at the abuse it's endured. lol Eventually I'll have solid wood floors but until then... it'll do.

    I’m sorry I missed the Live, but I’m so happy I got to see the replay. There’s a lot of useful information in here. I would never have thought to use plywood as flooring. Such a great idea, and the end result is amazing. It was a lot of work, but thankfully you have LE and your a Dad who enjoy doing theses kinds of projects. It must feel amazing to have accomplished so much! How much do you think you saved doing it this way, as opposed to using traditional hardwood flooring? Thanks for this video. I look forward to Part 2.
