What kind of wood did you use? Pictures?

Beautiful work! I have hardly a clue how the current wood floors are done. Are they "tongue and groove?"

Yep. The only difference now compared to 1969 and earlier is that heavy staples or L cleats are used instead of nails. We also use pneumatic nailers.

It amazes me how much patience the old guys had putting in floor with a hammer and nails.
