Sweeping the hardwood
floor in anticipation of the new carpeting. Also in view is the
re-upholstered big chair that Caleb and his buddies share when listening
to the children's sermon. |

The two photos above
show the dark and light patterns formed by where and where not the pews
occupied the floor. Since these cues would not be seen with the new
carpet in place, careful measurements were taken so that the pews could
be bolted securely again to the floor in the proper position. |
|
The carpet shows
pinking shear edges where it will be fused with a parallel roll of
carpet in covering the floor. Here a worker is cutting the rug to size. |
 |
 |
The carpet is folded
over exposing a white under belly as the laying out proceeds. A tool of
the trade used to stretch out bulges is seen on the white bottom of one
of the rolls. |
|
The completed pews are
shown favoring one side of the sanctuary from this balcony view. They
will favor the other side when the carpet is down there allowing the
work to continue to the other side. |

A roll of carpet is
laid out on the aisle between the wall and columns. |
