When in a Hole...



There comes a moment in every project when you begin to suspect you've bitten off more than you can chew. The key point here, however, is not the enormous hole in the bathroom floor that provides a good view of the kitchen, but a detail in the middle foreground: this joist, which once sustained the toilet, has been notched almost completely through in two places to accommodate the brass (left) and cast iron (right) drains. When we started, there were six original joists under the bathroom, two or three in very bad shape. We added nine.
