2013 - Who'd have thought I'd be dreaming about vinyl

"Here's an easy job for you" he says.  Remove the old vinyl floor, shouldn't be too hard.......ha

Several weeks, wines, heat guns and Brad's hand made jackhammer extension tools later, the vinyl is finally gone, but not without a fair bit of the surface timber and my soul with it.   The one thing we didn't try was water/steam.  As it turns out the very last pieces which got wet after the window removal were much, much easier to remove...could it have been the moisture?

After the chisel failed, Brad made a tool for the end of the jackhammer, when the jackhammer failed, bought a heat gun and burnt it out, so bought another heat gun.  

Nothing quite like child labour as Lola is set to work and Daisy looks on.
