Trim the door!
Finally got around to putting the trim up around the front door. This sounds like a small thing, but when the house isn’t straight, plumb, or level, there’s a bit of a challenge to it.
In short, the door itself was p/l/s, but the wall around it wasn’t. The upper left corner of the wall was away from the door by 1/4 inch, and the lower right corner was also away from the door by 1/4 inch. The upper right corner was fine, and the lower left corner butts up against the wall and floor, so it’s not that bad if it’s off.
This all meant that I had to gracefully rip out a shim that was underneath the sheet rock at the top of the door, and rip out sheet rock at the bottom of the door. But hey, it’s finished now and tacked into place.
Side note: never buy an electric staple gun. They don’t work. The nails are too short (1 inch) and it has trouble getting the nail through while leaving a large scratch on the wood. So you have to come back with a nail kit and sink the nail and get some filler for the hole and the scratch. Save your aggravation and get a air compressor.
