Colorado Cabin remodel
In May 2008 I went to Colorado and gutted a living room, hallway and bath of Steve and Suzanne Melkoski's Cabin; http://www.fourteenernet.com/mountainretreat/
Then installed dry wall (knock down texture), new lighting, updated electric out lets/ switches, blue streak pine boards, new toilet and sink in bath, new hot water heater, pebble stones behind stove and tiled around the tub
check out the photos:
this cabin has had an addition added on many decades ago and we discovered where the old windows where, along with many other treasures
Thats Steve with the drill he and Suzanne own the cabin
Had to wait a bit for the walls to dry before blocking and texturing
Installing tongue and grove boards over my head was very hard
took about 6-7 hours to complete the ceiling with Steves help
The walls went much smoother
(thats Suzanne with the rubber mallet)
The pebble stones behind the stove had to go up piece by piece do there weight
Notice that the wood fits flush against the drywall and no cover up trim (1/4 round) is needed
the wood boards lined up perfect with the stones so once again no trim needed

I do not do shady wood work so every cut lines up perfect and no cover up trim is needed saving the owners tons of money 
I had a lot of fun remodeling this cabin and the owner has asked me to do the kitchen next year
