'Cold here too.

I left some moose on the freezer out on the porch - to 'thaw' overnight (so I could grind it into hamburger today)
It's still rock hard!

It must have been about 15 at our house. It was officially 19 downtown and we usually go about 5 degrees cooler out here.

It sure is bright and sunny when it's cold like this. I guess winter really IS going to happen this year.

Heavy frost this morning. Leaves on the Sugar Maple trees are 3/4 gone.

Hupurest: Suprised that you can't get a simple thing like D'Italiano Bread up in Anchorage. Bought some today. On sale for $1.59 a loaf.

white17:

Have you done much finish work with Mouldings ? A bit stuck on how to do a transition piece out of Red Oak that would divide the Kitchen and the Hallway. Hallway is Red Oak for the Hardwood floor and the Kitchen is Ceramic tile.

The dumb tile guy should have put the transition piece in when he did the floor, but left the job for me to do. He said " YOU FIGURE IT OUT !! " Not happy with him or this tile job !!

I got pictures of it to better explain it, if they would help.

Thanks !!

Just finished taking the pictures. I will have them uploaded in a few minutes. I measured out the drop from the top of the tile down to the Oak floor. Oak floor is exactly 1 5/16 inches lower that the top of the kitchen tile floor.

As soon as the picture get downloaded , I will post picts.

Well I hope it isn't as irregular as your contour tool seems to indicate but ........What I would consider is put a piece of oak at the bottom,,90 degrees to the run of the hardwood floor.

Next I would make a piece of oak that has a 90 dapped out of the backside that measures 1 5/16"... less the thickness of the first piece I mentioned.. on the tile part of that piece run a bevel off so that it tapers to the tile.

I'll try to sketch it. You should only need a table saw and 3 cuts to do the job.
