    Hey there! My name is Abby and I recently bought a MAJOR fixer upper house. I am SO excited to work on fixing it up this old house and turning it into my dream home. I can't wait to take you on this journey with me! I am planning to DIY as much as I can and learn so much about home renovations along the way. I am starting out totally clueless so I am sure it will be a grand adventure! Follow along on my channel if you want to see DIY projects, renovating a house on a budget, and I am sure a lot of craziness along the way! I'm just a girl with a drill and a dream.

    Can’t believe you’re already doing finish trim work! This does not feel like 2 years, but have watched since the beginning and am so excited for you. You live in beautiful country, and are so blessed to have family with a lumber business, and to live so close to them! My husband and I lived within a block of my MIL and also my SIL for several years, and we all have so many wonderful memories of those days.

    "Inside part is the jamb. "Outside part" is the casing. if you have a bottom jamb which protrudes past the wall surface, it is the sill, and the casing under that sill is the skirt.. Just some helpful hints from a 73 year-pld carpenter!

    Abby, I know you plan to put your tractor in one of those sheds. But please, in the meantime, put a tarp or something over it. It will age much faster unprotected as it is now. It was a big investment.

    I hope someone in your family takes over your Dad's farm one day and farms with horses as much as they can . The skill and knowledge of working with horses is something worth keeping . I think the gov. should give a farmer like your Dad and others like the old order Amish a huge tax break in order to help keep the skills alive

    That was such a beautiful view of your area and so glad you recognize the true beauty of it. I grew up in northern Maryland, southern Pa but left right after junior year (for Florida and now Texas and states in between). Did not go back for many years and just know if I had the realization of the beauty of the land, wild horses could not have pulled me away. The happiness was evident on your face with the window frame work! So blessed with Mom, Dad, and Jay!

    Abby, be cautious when staining soft wood. It will absorb the stain inconsistently, you will get blotchy essential. Use a Prestain Conditioner, it will control the obsorbtion of the stain. Follow the instructions. Good job so far!

    Yeah! Time for the pretty part. Just a suggestion; as long as you're nailing the jamb together before inserting it, I would highly recommend staining it first. It's extremely difficult to keep the stain off the vinyl window unless you use painters tape. It would be a real time saver for sure! Great drone footage! I love your parents channel too! 💯❣️

  • @wendyhenschel.
    @wendyhenschel. Před 23 dny +1

    i have a suggestion for you. If you want to stain the Basswood the same color as the door for the cabinet. Bring the door with you to a store that has a color match machine, and it will read the color of the stain and tell you what stain you need. But understand that Basswood is whiter than Maple so you will not get an exact color match once you stain. It will be close but not exact. Another thing you can do is use the natural color stain then finish in Polyurethane and the wood will darken on its own as it ages. But Polyurethane has the tendency to add yellow to whatever you are finishing. So, if you do not want the yellow tint use Polyacrylic instead. It is water based and does not color it stays clear. Personally, i always use Polyacrylic because i hate the yellow color from the oil used in Polyurethane. The windows will look beautiful when finished.

    Abby, the window trim looks terrific. The 2 year restoration is really getting close to completion. I know you've learned so much from Jay's expert carpentry and building skills. With the older structure of the 150 year old house and the challenging nooks and crannies you need to deal with in a restoration of this magnitude. You should be very pleased with your progress. Also I know how you appreciate the support of Your Mom and Dad Jim and Brenda Gordon . Along with the work from William and of course the wonderful team of horses of Bill and Baron who are part of group the equine stars of "Working Horses With Jim "

    I think a maple stain on the trim and a clear coat on the floor will be very complementary to the dark wood doors and your cabinets. Needs to be rather neutral to thread that needle with all the different materials. Can't wait to see your floors. Anxious to see how the wood grain and color variation from the heartwood looks. Won't be as stark a contrast as Hickory but should look truly special. Your dad is a resource I would use clear out in the midwest if I were going to renovate something. Some of the materials (species) you have access to in NY are not native here but are really nice to work with, like your Basswood. Wonderful clear grain and can match up with anything. Your folks have to be proud of you and what you've done with that old house! I'm older than they are and I would be if you were my kid!

    It's beautiful country out there, just beautiful. What kind of farm is it? I also enjoyed watching you two add the window frames and sills to the window. Now I know how people do that lol. :))))
