Laying
short
pieces
of
hardwood flooring
1 1/4
inches
thick
all the way across at a 30 x 15
room
is not a fun way to spend your
time
. You have to go 1
row
at a time
tapping
the
tongue
of the one piece into the
groove
of the other,
over
and
over
and
over
and
over
again. Also, you have to do most of this on your knees, the only person who gets to
stand
up is the one who operates the
nailer
and they have to be
hunched over
swinging a
mallet
.
A word of advice:
Use a
wooden
handle
d
hammer
when
laying
pieces. Then simply set the piece in place,
tap
it from the
front
with the wooden handle then use the hammer end to bang it
sideways
into its neighboring piece. Then the person operating the nailer comes around swinging the mallet wildy at you. Then you get to repeat the laying of the pieces over and over and over until you come to a wall or some
weird
angle
which then makes it so you have to
cut
pieces into
crazy shapes
.
All in all it isn't that bad of a
job
as long as you have a nice pair of
knee pads
. You can make good money doing
hardwood
floors
and it looks
cool
when your done. :)
