But...the original woodwork was in place, the boiler cranked like a champ, and there were endless possibilities for improvement. 

I also love woodworking, but no longer have the access I used to so until I build a shop... that's on the backburner - but I still love to talk about it.

I have a feeling the mortgage guy will conveniently come out of the wood work and say he is unable to provide a mortgage denial letter.

I am a designer, photographer and wood worker living in Wichita.

Leverage your current network, and you might be surprised who comes out of the woodwork.  

@Nancy MullinsNancy, I was wondering if you've ever known of it going bad for anyone and an unnamed claimant coming out of the woodwork later?  

Attempting to pull a fast one usually brings others out of the woodwork and they can bite you.

I have never worked for money, being an artist person and all, I always wanted to learn and look "badass" while learning, so I worked for realestate brokers, artists, architects, design and build I just wanted to learn more. " learning" was always my goal and "moving my body"( drawing, painting, working out, running around, wood working, welding, X-sports, basketball  )was something I love doing until I married my husband.

I'm not surprised given the quality of his work, professionalism, and fair prices.He's the GC for his projects and likes to keep his woodworking skills active.
