Fitting Engineered Wood Flooring
- Layers of hardwood compressed together, like solid wood. It can be sanded and renovated after laying.
- Engineered wood, also called composite wood or man-made wood, includes a range of derivative wood products which are manufactured by binding together the strands, particles, fibers, or veneers of wood, together with adhesives, to form composite materials.
- Any restructured composite of wood, including oriented strand board, particleboard, and plywood.
- floor: the inside lower horizontal surface (as of a room, hallway, tent, or other structure); "they needed rugs to cover the bare floors"; "we spread our sleeping bags on the dry floor of the tent"
- (floored) provided with a floor
- The boards or other material of which a floor is made
- building material used in laying floors
- a small and often standardized accessory to a larger system
- The action of fitting something, in particular
- adjustment: making or becoming suitable; adjusting to circumstances
- A small part on or attached to a piece of furniture or equipment
- in harmony with the spirit of particular persons or occasion; "We have come to dedicate a portion of that fieldIt is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this"
- Items, such as a stove or shelves, that are fixed in a building but can be removed when the owner moves
Bucket Elevator restoration #1, Central section
This was rescued from Haxted Mill and is now being reassembled at Ifield (Crawley) as a demonstrator. This is how they look on the second floor.
About 19' long these 'legs' will enclose a cloth flat belt with metal buckets, used to lift grain from the first floor to the loft. The legs are assembled in two pieces, we think either to make fitting easier or at some stage the elevator was extended to make it easier to use.
As you can see here, they aren't long enough to go the distance into the 3rd floor loft. We could have sawn off the legs and used a shorter belt but this would have left us with a lot of 'wasted' wood, so new trunking is being assembled from reclaimed wood (a 1960s vintage bookshelf) to make up the final 45inch length to the top pulley box, making the entire height close to 23 feet!*
We will probably cut little windows at this level so people can see the buckets moving when the elevator is operated.
*Update* In a later error (not made by me) this was considered too long and 6inches of both legs were removed. 'They' thought there wasn't enough roof clearance because the motor was going to be mounted on top of the top box; it turned out that by repositioning the motor below there was clearance and the motor was actually in a better position! but by that time the damage was already done :-/ so that's why the top box (other pics) now looks a little 'low' in the floor!
Engineered Wood
Waste from construction sites make up the majority of the waste in our streams around town. Here we used engineered wood to reduce waste AND save money for our homeowners.
