Victoria….continued – April 2014 – and electrical problems

Posted on April 14, 2015October 14, 2015 by beauxminis

 

Time to continue with the interior …..

Parlour – floor and wallpaper
Parlour – continued
Parlour wallpaper, floor, baseboard, cove moulding and ceiling
Looking into both Parlour and Dining Room

Once this was done…all lights were tested and worked wonderful.

Then I decided to take a look at the Exterior .  That being said Janine , Bunny and Hubby suggested the entry door was not in a great location.  Location as in the original place  it was meant to be.  So out comes the saw, the knife and with a zip and a zap….the original door was closed and replaced by a window.  Then the side to the left of the original door would now become the front.  This made sense as the Staircase would be the showcase of the entry as it is faced right on as the main door opens.  And soo000 here are some more pics.

Oringinal door is closed and exisitng window is moved to centre
cut patch and tape
a new entry door will go here…showing the staircase as the door opens
To the side of the original door a new double door was added
along with two windws which had to be centered
shut down the side door which led to the kitchen…didn’t make sense here on the NEW front of the house

So  basically what happened here was a lot of patching cutting and resizing until I lost all kinds of electricity…Yikes.  What to do now?

Start ripping up wallpaper etc….I know now that it wasn’t all the cutting of walls but possibly a very wet floor.  Wet?  Yep…

The glue I used was a cheap “dollar store” white wood glue.  That glue did not dry for a long time as it contains a lot of moisture.  So this was most likely the cause of the shorts in the Parlour, Dining Room, Foyer and girls’ room.  Once a short happens, it tends to spread out.  And the remedy was to start at one end until you got to the source of the problem.  What a downer!  Set me back a long time.  Not only on the production level, but the will and enthusiasm to continue came to a stand still yet again….

The following pictures —- how you spell heartache in miniature.

Developed shorts everywhere
etc
The girls bedroom stopped working
