The last of the demolition?

Got my favourite tool out on sunday - the SDS drill/chiseller.

The intention was to prepare the hole/opening along the side of the stairs for a glass-block panel. Before and after photos follow:


Irritatingly an overgenerous mortar joint messed up the third 'step' but beyond that I found that the cinderblock is actually quite easy to work and get a fairly accurate cut

So the steps are pretty much where I want them. However it has yet to be seen if they are where they need to be. Glass blocks should arrive this weekend, then I'll find out.

Now that this has been done, the theory is there's no more messy/dusty work to be done. Apart from a small amount of plasterboarding, and lining the 'narnia' cupboard with timber & insulation. Oh, and levelling the floor.. hmm.
