I wish some of this would go faster but I come to the conclusion it is what it is, I can only do so much when time and money are available.
A couple of days ago I got into the stack of rough sawn oak and was showing a daughter of what needs to be done to start making useable wood.
Couple of trips through a planer and the grain/checks/inclusions start to pop out..... but that's the look I want. Lord give me the strength to do this.

Completely understandable. Just think, once you’re finally all done and moved in, it won’t matter one bit how long it took to get there.

I am getting antsy to get into building some cabinetry. Ran a few more boards last night through the jointer and planer. I do love te knarly stuff I am seeing. Only removing enough wood to make the boards somewhat flat. They are still appx 1" thick. Will be checking moisture content on it and see if it's ready to take down to 3/4" cabinet stuff.

I don't remember if I mentioned it earlier but my wife wants our kitchen cabinets to be painted white. Oak doesn't paint well so I'll have to buy either, beech, poplar or maple for that.
The bath basins/cabinetry and maybe some built ins are what the oak is for. Looking at mission/craftsman style, something basic but still stands the test of time.
