Another day’s progress on the flooring project. The kitchen (galley, if you speak boat) has proved quite tricky, as I anticipated. Lots of not-quite-square angles and difficult gaps to plan out.
I made a template/jigsaw initially, to plan out the spacing and gaps. I wanted to have a level floor under the fridge (important for it to run smoothly) and under the oven. The oven is supported on the sides, so this is for looks rather than functionality. After several hours work I think all has been achieved.
There is still plenty to do to finish the job, all the trims and little finishing bits that will take nearly as long as the main part of the job. And the corridor and bathroom, they will have to wait until tomorrow. Speakers of ‘boat’ will know the bathroom is known as the heads but I’m writing for the English speaker here. The term heads apparently comes from the Navy, when ship’s loos were a large room with cubicles having four foot high walls, thus you saw a row of heads in the room, just in case you wanted to know..
