I am remodeling my rec-room in my home, getting it ready for my pool table to be set up. Instead of ripping down ALL the old sheet rock, I am putting up a 1/4" thick sheet of it all around, plus new electrical box's, outlets, and light switches.

I ran out of sheet rock, just need 2 more sheets to finish up, and had a gap left over. After watching that TV show, If Walls Could Talk, where people remodel or renovate an old home and find all kinds of hidden or lost things during...figured I would leave somehting behind for the next persons to find, and scratch their heads and ask, WTF?

After tomorrow, this will be covered up with some fresh new sheet rock and will be hidden for years to come.

:D Your welcome ED.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know what you mean though. when I moved into my curent house. my room was covered in pink wall paper, and purple carpet. needless to say the first to go was the wall paper. underneath....wierd!!!! poop brown. not primer...actual paint. just plain weird...like a rave house or something. then I pulled the carpet...pulled up all the nails, and replaced with screws. no more floor creeks
 


That is so funny and the ppl that find this will be scratching
there heads lol

I remember a few years back when i was redoing one of the Apartments
here ( Building super ) That this one apartment seem to be way smaller then it should be and that all the walls were very lob sided..
abone further looking relized that they resheeted the whole place...
Once i started to tear down the drywall the reason why became very clear..

They the ppl that lived there had put big and little marbles everywere...
they used compond for a base and inserted the marbles...
They took the handles off the cupboards and used spoons forks and knives
as the handles ect...
