WFB asked followers on Facebook and Instagram to share what their wood flooring challenge inspired by the popular Netflix show “Squid Game” would be. Here’s what they said:
Josh Hansman
You must select three tools from your toolbox before knowing the challenge. Then, do a board repair using only those three tools.
Shawn Myers
You must match my stain color in my existing red oak, perfectly, but I want white oak installed, and keep the same direction, but I want wider planks, and it better match my cherry wood...
Rob Griswold
Sand and finish in the dark!
Eric Nylin
Match red oak to gray brown white cerused LVP. You have 45 minutes.
Adrian Molitor
Repair a shake board after a final coat with your hands tied behind your back while listening to “High Enough” by Creed at 6 p.m. start time, 6:03 p.m. complete time. Customer is watching. And to make it hard, you begin to pee yourself at 6:01 p.m.
Steven Triplett Jr.
You must rid the floor of every dog hair before coating—EVERY hair.
Daniel Parkin
UV set filler by hand on common grade oak floor, 400 m2. Remove old filler first, not set properly in factory. Go.
Cody Scott
Match an existing gray floor.
Corey Brower
Install a flush mount vent into an existing floor with only a hammer and chisel.
Wesley Elliott
Freshly installed, sanded, stained and finished red oak floor on site. Remove a board that goes from the foyer to the dining room because of wind shake. Can't know anything was done...
George Gav F. Kavetsos
You have to watch the finish as it dries…
Mikie White
Repair the finish pull from tape in the middle of the room.
Ron Hardwood
Post pictures of your work without getting bashed…
Saul Mariscal
Install nail-down 3/4 on top of radiant heat system “blind folded.” 😅
Wood Floor Chuck
Get done on time and under budget because all the other trades are running behind and over budget.
Alberto Salinas
Find the blemish that's only visible when you crawl around at 5:45 p.m.

Turn off the light in the back room after the coat went down.
