This Week’s Featured Pulp Improvement
The 257 Project
When we left off last week we were waiting on our final gas and water plumbing inspections at the 1800 Project. Great news, passed both of those on Monday and had our first Building Final (including Fire) walkthrough inspection on Wednesday. As expected, a couple items came up, nothing out of the norm and we essentially wanted direction from the Inspector just to save having to do things twice! Anyway, need to add a stair rail (original is from 1800 and not quite tall enough) opposite and at proper height to that original, install child safety locks on the 2nd floor windows, a couple minor things and last but not least, need to have 4” tall house numbers (ours were only 3” and probably from the first time a street number was assigned to the house! Keeping the older ones, just going to add the new, taller versions! We’ll take care of most of the items this weekend, child safety latches for windows arriving on Monday, hopefully we can install Monday evening and gear up for another Final on Wednesday (have to call in the day before to schedule the inspection and need to make sure we get all of those latches installed).
So, that all said, introducing our most recent project at the 257 headquarters, the Pulp Fireplace! I’ll explain more in the near future but in a nutshell, we converted a traditional wood burning fireplace into a gas fired one. See adjacent pic for the Rais unit we had put in. Since the Rais sits proud of the old fireplace, made sense to close it up and provide a nice backdrop to the Rais (which is a thing of beauty)! Process pics below and as mentioned, I’ll talk a bit more about it next week, just need to go get busy at the 1800 Project and finish things up.
Check in next week for a full update on where we stand!
Have a great week

(The 1800 Project)
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!

Perfect World
Here comes our latest music video, Perfect World. There is actually an instrumental version of this in the very well done documentary, “Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead” and we used it as backing music for the “how to Make a Pulp Greenhouse” video. Hope you like this version of me playing it!
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!
