Accomplishments

one of my biggest accomplishments is remodeled my own kitchen by taking everything out and replacing the rotten and falling apart subfloor and replaced it with new subfloor and put in a floating floor. I refurbished the cabinets by sanding them and putting a new oil stain on them. I also replaced the subfloor in my bathroom with new subfloor and added a floating floor in the the bathroom. I also learned how to do the basics on my car (changing brakes, oil changes, tie rods, control arms etc.)

My own personal accomplishments are rebuilding my kitchen and re doing my bathroom floor

Used a circular saw and cutout the old subfloor, setting the saw at the height of the subfloor without cutting the joist. replaced with proper size subfloor and glued down to floor joist. Then i cut and measured my floating floor and set in place.
