Ok, well, yes do it one room at a time. You are right no reason to move evrything all at once. As far as the wood goes, why the Hell would he get 1000 sq feet of hard wood? Who gives a shit if its free , you don't need it. Tell the fathe-in-law to shove the shit up his ass, go to home depot or Lowes, tell them the sq footage you have, they will give the right amount and it will be finnished. I am taking it that you have never done this before, so if you do take what you FIL gives you, do you know what your doing? Are you putting it down on concreat floors, or is there a wood sub floor? Is the flooring he got you tounge and groved, or is it just straight planks? Do you have an air compresor if it is tounge and groved, because if you do it with a regular flooring nailer you are going to kill yourself. Speaking of a flooring gun, do you know how to use one, do you have the right paper that needs to be put down before the floor is layed? What kind of paper you ask.. well, the paper is to keep the boards from squeaking, you could use tar paper that you put down on a roof before you shingle, it's cheaper and does a fine job. Is the sub floor level, if not you can run into problems.. I can keep going on and on, My advice, buy tounge and groved flooring, take the other stuff and heat your housse with it. Do one room at atime, make sure the floors are level, and dont have any major bumps or divits in it, get the right tools for the job, pluss knee pads, beer, and lots of Asprin for your back.
Good Luck :thumbs-up:
