[QUOTE="Brewdude, post: 451351, member: 1723"] Helluva project you going on there beeman. But looks like you have it well in hand. The first pic with the finished kitchen looks great. Nothing like DIY! My first house I bought back in '84 was one of those that also seemed to have no insulation at all and this was in the Milwaukee, WI area! I ended up using blow-in fibre between the upright supports as I didn't want to tear off the drywall. Drill a 1" hole in the lower and upper section of the area and blow in the insulation through the bottom hole until it came out the top. Then plug the holes and mud over. Rinse and repeat. Took a couple days to do the whole house, which wasn't big but very tedious. And I was new at this! A couple times I ended up blowing insulation into the chase for the forced air heating. That was a real joy..........NOT! :evil: Cheers, RR [/QUOTE]
