This floor is for a very good friend's sister and brother-in-law (he’s actually someone who used to install and sand for us). Their daughter has multiple disabilities and they built a new beautiful home equipped with many amenities to help her and this room is the average “in home gym” for physical therapy. Most of the maple is birds eye saved from years of installing gymnasiums. Such a fun and rewarding project I was able to be a part of.
