This Week’s Featured Pulp Improvement
Pulp Deck
Pulp Deck
Final quarter-round and flat stock trim pieces added, the Pulp Deck project is ready for caulk and paint. That starts today!
As you would probably figure, the “final” final pieces of transition trim pieces can be a tad difficult to install, mainly just due to size, they are typically a lot smaller and it can get a little dicey with getting the lengths and the angles cut just right, aka, best to take your time doing these! Remember that “measure twice, cut once” mantra that we continuously get backwards, never hurts to strive for it. Anyway, trying to work with as many longer pieces as possible to avoid seams, and we were able to work our way through it, overall, looking very nice.
Also, got busy this past week with the close up of the remaining kitchen low wall on the back side (tile board). We’d left it open so we could get all of the electric runs in place (that’s where the breaker panel is), holding out till now, just to make sure we have everything we need powered up. It’s time. Time for tile!
Yes indeed, once caulk and paint (hopefully in the next few days) complete, we are moving into last phase of the project, application of the very cool stone tile we have acquired to the kitchen cabinet and low wall faces. Thinking this should all time out very nicely, as the weather has certainly taken a turn into full on Fall here and we’ll be wanting the tile in place prior to those pesky overnight frost conditions!
Of course, we have a Nor’easter heading this way today so we’ll see exactly how much gets done this weekend, fingers crossed!
Progress pics below, see you next week!

Nothing at All
A long time ago, in a small apartment in New York City, I was listening to a Prince song, simply called “7” and I was very much getting into the sound of the guitar playing, and what I perceived as an “open” chord strum, aka, just hitting those strings with no fingers applied (forgive me if that was mistaken). I tried to work that into something, and came up with a riff that I thought was pretty catchy. Not 100% sure what mood I was in at the time but decided that “you don’t need Nothing at All” was a good premise and ran with it. Years later, and also during the pandemic, decided it was a good time to rebuild it. Got busy with my wonderful musician friends and a new version it was.
Hope you enjoy!
The 1800 Project
Yes, it has been awhile since we mentioned the 1800 Project, however, we’ve recently completed the part 2 trailer for the feature length and down the road video for the complete project. Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you, The 1800 Project Part Deux (the finish). Enjoy!
Pulp Gameroom
Another video from the archives, this is all about taking a room with some nasty carpet with old paint on walls and converting it into a game room paradise (at least for us)! We stripped the space down to the concrete floor/bare walls and then went full steam ahead with the LVT flooring, patch/paint on walls/ceiling, new light bulbs and then the pool table, dart board, TV, a neon light and a bunch of cool wall art. Enjoy!
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 sample print below!
