I'm from Chicago. You mentioned the sink parts you need being from a Chicago company. There is an antique Salvage company in Chicago that is called Salvage One. They have a huge inventory of all kinds of parts. I would suggest you contact them. They may be able to help you out.
👍 Happy Birthday! 🎂 Just a heads-up... _CAUTION:_ *Real Marble* - Unless things have changed, you don't want to use (modern?) _Plumbers Putty_ when mounting faucets and drains to real marble, it is corrosive. Ask around, search, for what is okay to use. ✌
Marble will also suck up what is put on it. I watch another channel where they are building their own home, they bought a marble bathroom sink and were tired that night so they turned the sink upside down on some foam board and went to bed. The next morning they went to install the sink and found out their 3 year old had use markers on the old foam board and the sink soaked up the marker, they were able to get some out but not all so be careful with marble🥰
Absolutely love how dedicated you guys are to every little detail. One day I'll come to America just to see this beautiful house. As always warm and sunny greetings from the Gold Coast ☀ ♥
Remove the old cork/rubber and replace it with a stack of faucet washers. Get a variety and a combo of flat and a conical should work. May need to smooth the seat as well. For the handle, a new packing. Remove the screw from the handle then the packing nut. If you can’t find a packing, they make a graphite impregnated string that gets wrapped around the stem. You got this dude!!!
I can’t wait till next week to see the tile (not necessarily on the floor - just the tile). I had forgotten how pretty that sink and its taps are. Once you get the beadboard up and finished and the floor down, I think the rest’ll just come right together. It’s just around the corner! Hope you had a great day, Birthday Boy, and the wish you made while blowing out your candles comes true!❤
That is the greatest difficulty, finding those tiny little pieces like seals and such for anything from 50 to 100+ years. Interestingly there IS always someone out there who has and or makes serviceable items that you need. The trick is to find them as some do not advertise and only way to find them is word of mouth. Someone who knows someone who knows someone that knows that person. Found this out the hard way with cars. My oldest car is a 1927 TT Murray Body T Model Ford Truck. One of the rarest cars I have is an old Sunbeam Roadster. There is always someone that specialises in something weird and wonderful that most people wouldn't find interesting until they actually need that person's services.
You and my dad would get along so well. He loved to repair, remake, re-utilize things. He knew the value of old things that weren't over their usefulness yet. Yes, your DNA is in everything you do! Happy Birthday!
Happy Belated Birthday Kaleb! Can't wait to see the floor tiles! I love the beauty of old things that were made with so much care. I watch another creator who is restoring a 100 year old boat and he says he expects it to take two years to finish the ship. Then when the two years are up, it will be another two years and so on until it's finished. Lol Restoring anything correctly takes time. I'm so glad to be along for the process. I love how excited you are about the house!
Is it wrong I'm excited to see a bathroom get finished? My grandmother lived in a house that was built in the late 1800s in middle Georgia. She did all the things people do, converted the back porch to a bedroom and small bath and added a kitchen (it was the length of the house). Covered the fireplaces and put gas heaters there, etc. She did leave the original bathroom for years and years. I remember in the 60s bathing in the big ole claw foot cast iron bathtub. She had the hanging toilet and even a marble sink. There are marble mines in Georgia so it was actually cheap. Some time in the 80s or 90s she decided to remodel the bathroom and got rid of all the old stuff (including the floor) and made it "modern" with box stuff and a fiberglass shower. Broke my heart. The only original things left in the house when she died was an old table her Daddy made in the late 1800s that had no nails in it, an old pump style singer sewing machine and an old fridge that had the motor on top. Not sure what my aunt did when it all, she sold the house to the church and they tore it down and put a garden there.
The bathroom is really coming together nicely! Happy Birthday! You mentioned putting wood to support the back of the sink. You may have already thought about it, but supporting the left side might be a good idea too. Anyway, looking forward to seeing your tile choice. Cheers!
Did that tank come with a copper lining? If not, the original ones were copper lined to prevent the water getting into the wood. Anyway, if it does have a lining for it, I would make sure there was some non-wood cover under the wood cover (does it have a cover?). Also the faucets, the "o-rings" look like rubber stoppers. I recommend going to ACE and looking for a stopper that fits that size. Some stoppers already have holes in the middle too (some obviously don't). But try a stopper for a replacement.
Perhaps installing a temporary sink while you gather everything you need for what you really want in your bathroom. It’s ok to install something in the name of function to meet your immediate needs. Just food for thought.
Use black test tube stoppers to recreate the faucet stoppers. You can drill them for your center hole, and they can be turned on a lathe if you need to change the diameter. Coat them lightly with Vaseline to preserve the rubber, and Bob’s your Uncle.
Caleb, when you said that you don't think anyone will be looking under the sink, my thought was "this isn't a house, this is a work of art"! Beauty in the smallest of details, how lovely.
It always feels good to get a task finished. Have you heard of renovators supply? They do have items for historic homes, not sure if they will have your plumbing supplies. Also Old House Journal magazine has a resource guide available. Lastly…Happy Birthday.
Van Dyke Restoration is a good source for replica hardware. Routing the bottom of the support wood to fit to the decorative molding is an extra step that would marry them a bit better. It's nice to see the bathroom nearing completion.
Happy Birthday! I didn't go back and look, but did you put blocking behind the beadboard to screw the oak bracing and wrought iron side brackets? If not, given the weight you should think about removing the beadboard and putting 2x6s or even 2x10s between the studs in that wall. Pocket screws to fasten would be good, too. Of course, if all being screwed into the studs, additional bracing wouldn't be needed.
Yes, Process and is a big reason working on an old house is so wonderful. And, yes, Process is a big part of the joy of restoration; Bringing new life into the original fabric of an old structure keeps it Real. John Bethel, Missouri
Happy Birthday, Kaleb! Amidst all of the destruction in this world, it's wonderful to see someone who cares so much about preserving a home, and giving new life to everything from the house itself to the hinges and brass taps. The satisfaction of a job done well feeds the patience required. One day I will clean up (drips of bright green paint! :( ) and restore the original 1930s 'candle style' wall sconces in our guest room. They go above the Art Deco gum-wood mantle and shallow fireplace that once housed a fancy brass gas heater. The double door closet is huge (gorgeous eucalyptus wood doors, with glass handles), and the floor in one corner shows evidence of a corner cabinet. We think it was an office for the owner/manager of the avocado orchard that used to cover most of our block. Not surprisingly, I love the detective work and thought process underlying both your artistic, and practical decisions. The new tile will be a great present! :)
many happy returns you look like a proud father and so you should, i love both your and Kims dedication and am proud to be able to share your journey love from England Juliet xx 💞
You put so much THOUGHT & CARE into each DETAIL. Your HEART for this RESTORATION is BEAUTIFUL & causes me to wonder about My Creator & His HEART for every DETAIL in fashioning ALL of US together in His Image. Laminin. You might want to SEE what IT looks like at a MICROSCOPIC level. It's what HOLDS all of our CELLS together - like the GLUE of LIFE. And even if you LOOK under & over the HUMAN body, there is BEAUTY & VALUE in every, single DETAIL. THANK you, Caleb for SHARING your HEART in your VIDEOS. Hearing THOSE details is the BEST part! ❤️
Over the next 10 when we all come visit and volunteer or visit and support the new building remodels, we will peak at all this detail like an Easter 🐣 hunt
Happy birthday 🎂 For sure it take more time when u restore something and am happy u r sticking with ur authentication, those rubbers u can find them here in europe😭am sure u will find them somewhere in usa too...its frustrating because if u were here in the continent u will find everything u need and more!!! The sink should have footing that's how they supported marble . Love the progress, spring is here so this project is almost done....first room in the house completed🥰
You'll have a new life in approximately 5 years, once you complete the entire project. Until then, you are taking a five year crash course in woodworking, cabinet making, plumbing, excavation, roofing, flooring, painting, staining, wall papering, and finally evestrophing. BTW, have you noticed anything moving (by itself), strange sounds, like whispering, moving shadows, feelings of dread, or that you're being watched ?
Great update. The bathroom is really coming together!! I want to buy a old Victorian house and restore it, it’s always been my dream. Oh and nice buc ees shirt!
Hi from Brazil and congratulations on your birthday. I have a few suggestions for the restoration of your fawcet. Once the company that made it isn’t around any longer, you may have to improvise. The hardened plug may be fixed with the plastic cork from a cheaper bottle of wine (don’t use a regular corkscrew to open it up and I suggest you use it to cook, not to drink 😀). Many older fawcets used a sealing method that was a combination of a pin like brass stud and a leather sealant (sorry if I don’t get the correct names for parts). You can once again improvise. If the stud is still ok, all you have to do is get either a piece of round thick leather or a piece of round thick rubber which you can cut up with a die and attach to the stud. One other suggestion goes for the joining of the sink and the beadboard. Althou it may not be period appropriate, use silicone to protect your wood from water damage. Good luck and keep it up!
Happy birthday 🎉. Finding washers for the faucets should not be too hard. The issue you need to look out for are the faucet washer seats. Some seats can be removed, I don't know about yours. If the seats are bad, the faucet will leak regardless of the washers. Replaceable seats come out with a seat wrench, which is cheap.
It took me several months and trips to plumbing suppliers who’ve been in business for a 100 years to get parts for my faucets on my claw foot tub! They had to dig in the waayy back to find what I needed, but they had it!!
Can’t wait to see the bead board stained and finished.. enjoyed watching you and Kim banter as you worked on it.. This will be a lovely room. I’m glad you enjoyed spending your birthday in this space.,😊🎁🎈
Hi Kim! Lol, how are you going to make those washers? Could you film that please :) Bummer that you are so close to getting the sink in but hung up on such a small thing. Hopefully the "washer process" goes quickly and as expected. The bead board is beautiful with the wallpaper 😍 ❤ you must be so excited to see it coming together. I love what you said about the germs on the toilet seat. That was all I could think about everytime you brought it up!! Imagine the things that seat saw!!🧐😆🤪 glad it all got a good cleaning.
Looking great! Take those faucet bibs with you to an old fashioned plumbing supply store. Not any of the big names- no Home Depot, Lowes or Ace. The actual plumbing shop should have washers and gaskets for the faucet. Remember when trying to find new ones ( or when making something to replace the old) Those old ones have shrunk and are a little smaller than the ones you'll need.
Hi Kaleb, love your new haircut. I know how busy you must be. You are doing an amazing job, and the right way. Can’t wait to see your bathroom finished. Keep up the good work, we’re with you both all the way.
It is so awsome how you pay attintion to even the smallest details like the trim for the 2×4 it is going to be beutiful and the fucet is beutiful. I'm in love with the wood doors and all the trim. Happy Birthday hope you had a great day
Don't feel so bad, it took me 6 months to renovate my bathroom (supply chain issues didn't help - at one point I couldn't buy electrical boxes because there were none to be found to buy!!) - took the walls down to the studs, built a linen closet, tiled the floor and shower and added a new sink and toilet. Didn't buy much from the big box stored either. That's the life of a perfectionist, lol!
Happy Birthday again Caleb. The powder room will come in time. Like you said, “ it can’t be done over night”. I do hope you’ll find n get that piece to help hold up the sink. It’s gonna be so nice looking with that one metal piece helping it to stay up n on. ♥️😊👍👍
Yay! I finally caught up to the present time! It’ll be interesting to actually feel the timeframe of each project now that I’m watching as the videos come out instead of binging a bunch of videos all at once lol!!
Hey Caleb - that Dewalt router has an edge guide that will easily allow you to cut a straight groove. You could also run it on a table saw if you have one. Routing as you did it is bound to cause waviness - and increase the likelihood of the router getting away from you as you're working.
Trying to keep a schedule when working on a house is absolutely impossible ... especially when working with 'antiques' and trying to take her back in time to her youth - - but it'll all be worth it in the end!!
Happy birthday Kaleb! Wish you all the best 🤩 Couldn't find anything for the faucet company. Anyway, these details are the way to gain another big step to completion! PS. Thumbs up for the t-shirt, but not the haircut. I liked your hair before 😜
For the faucet stopper, perhaps if you asked the guys at "This Old House" that shows in PBS (in eastern PA). The plumber has been around for years and years. He might have some ideas.
I'm from Chicago. You mentioned the sink parts you need being from a Chicago company. There is an antique Salvage company in Chicago that is called Salvage One. They have a huge inventory of all kinds of parts. I would suggest you contact them. They may be able to help you out.

Yikes! Who knew?? Well, maybe Kaleb. LOL But just in case, I’m glad you spoke up. That would have been devastating for them!
Thanks for the tip!

I watch another channel where they are building their own home, they bought a marble bathroom sink and were tired that night so they turned the sink upside down on some foam board and went to bed.

Have you considered 3D printing replacement rubber stoppers? You can even scan the originals to get the same shape.
Wouldn't that be great - the very modern with the antique.
Idk if they'd have the right type of printer and whatnot, but I think st louis library has a 3d printer too
Absolutely love how dedicated you guys are to every little detail. One day I'll come to America just to see this beautiful house. As always warm and sunny greetings from the Gold Coast ☀ ♥
@tess that’d be a fun trip to plan! 🙋🏻♀️🙆🏻♀️✔️
Me tooo😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
St Louis is a beautiful city, tons of history. 💙
Not so sunny at the moment I expect. Hope you aren't impacted by all the rain. I'm in Hervey Bay and we have been lucky to miss all the rain.
@@loissaedder2214 we're really lucky where we are. I'm quite high up on a hill. Batten down there's more on the way. Good luck.

I love your attention to detail. Perhaps you could temporarily install working faucets to have a working sink until you can “make” new o-rings.
You and my dad would get along so well. He loved to repair, remake, re-utilize things. He knew the value of old things that weren't over their usefulness yet. Yes, your DNA is in everything you do! Happy Birthday!
Old houses take time, you guys are doing things the right way. You’re not rushing, you’re taking the time & care. Small things lead to the big things.
Happy Belated Birthday Kaleb! Can't wait to see the floor tiles! I love the beauty of old things that were made with so much care. I watch another creator who is restoring a 100 year old boat and he says he expects it to take two years to finish the ship.

Thanks so much!
Isn't it interesting how like solid things were made ? Now , everything is cheap, disposable particle board. Yuk .
Is it wrong I'm excited to see a bathroom get finished? My grandmother lived in a house that was built in the late 1800s in middle Georgia. She did all the things people do, converted the back porch to a bedroom and small bath and added a kitchen (it was the length of the house).

Not sure what my aunt did when it all, she sold the house to the church and they tore it down and put a garden there.
Oh, that's heartbreaking. I wish someone had come forward who was willing to preserve the house (like our friends Kaleb & Kim).
The bathroom is really coming together nicely! Happy Birthday!
You mentioned putting wood to support the back of the sink. You may have already thought about it, but supporting the left side might be a good idea too. Anyway, looking forward to seeing your tile choice. Cheers!

happy birthday KALEB from NEwfoundland. great job on that house!
Happy birthday Kaleb! Hope you do a video on rebuilding those faucets.

If the seats are bad, the faucet will leak regardless of the washers. Replaceable seats come out with a seat wrench, which is cheap.
So so true and, I am very glad you are enjoying the process. There is nothing quite like putting TLC into an old house. Have a lovely birthday.

Happy birthday caleb, hope you have a good one 🙂
Good work on the little projects, sometimes its them little jobs that make all the difference.
Love it. I learn a lot when I'm watching . As you say: It's getting there. Happy birthday.
Are you going to match the beadwork in the same Stain? Happy birthday Caleb 🎂
WOW it's looking good now... Wohoo tiles to be installed soon.
Happy birthday 🎉🎉🎉
Can’t wait to see the bead board stained and finished.. enjoyed watching you and Kim banter as you worked on it.. This will be a lovely room. I’m glad you enjoyed spending your birthday in this space.,😊🎁🎈

Hi Kaleb, love your new haircut. I know how busy you must be. You are doing an amazing job, and the right way. Can’t wait to see your bathroom finished. Keep up the good work, we’re with you both all the way.
It is so awsome how you pay attintion to even the smallest details like the trim for the 2×4 it is going to be beutiful and the fucet is beutiful. I'm in love with the wood doors and all the trim. Happy Birthday hope you had a great day
Happy Birthday Kaleb🎉🎂🎁... The house is looking great! You should feel very proud. It's your legacy.
Thanks so much!!
Happy birthday Caleb
Love the Birthday cut & trim, the house looks better already
Can't wait to see more! Would love to come see it in person!!
Happy birthday Kaleb! So exciting to see the bathroom getting closer to done! All the little work really does pay off in the long run.
Happy birthday Kaleb, and happy new haircut. Looking good, can't wait to see the bathroom done. Hi to Kim.
Well HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!😃 🎂 🎉
I love the authentic wall paper. Good decision and so good looking,
Don't feel so bad, it took me 6 months to renovate my bathroom (supply chain issues didn't help - at one point I couldn't buy electrical boxes because there were none to be found to buy!!) - took the walls down to the studs, built a linen closet, tiled the floor and shower and added a new sink and toilet. Didn't buy much from the big box stored either. That's the life of a perfectionist, lol!
Happy Belated Birthday! You and Kim are doing a very special job on your house, and I am truly enjoying watching. The Old Girl lives!!
Thank you so much!
Happy birthday Kaleb, bet u got alot of gifts for the house. Lol
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BIG GUY.
Your still a young man, with miles to go. 🎂🍰🧁Have a great day!!
Thanks so much
Happy Birthday again Caleb.
The powder room will come in time. Like you said, “ it can’t be done over night”. I do hope you’ll find n get that piece to help hold up the sink. It’s gonna be so nice looking with that one metal piece helping it to stay up n on. ♥️😊👍👍

Kim's video was a good little taster!!!
Your birthday celebrating & haircut have invigorated you, it appears. The bathroom sink & hardware are beautiful.
Yay! I finally caught up to the present time! It’ll be interesting to actually feel the timeframe of each project now that I’m watching as the videos come out instead of binging a bunch of videos all at once lol!!

Happy Birthday, Kaleb! I love the attention to detail you are putting into your house!
The taps look like Gonzo from the muppets and i love them
Trying to keep a schedule when working on a house is absolutely impossible ... especially when working with 'antiques' and trying to take her back in time to her youth - - but it'll all be worth it in the end!!
Happy birthday Kaleb! Wish you all the best 🤩
Couldn't find anything for the faucet company. Anyway, these details are the way to gain another big step to completion!
PS. Thumbs up for the t-shirt, but not the haircut. I liked your hair before 😜
I think we are/were all thinking like you! We want the sink!!!! Haha!! Well worth the wait!
Happy Belated Birthday!!!!
Happy Birthday Kaleb!!!

Happy Birthday, Kaleb! I love your dedication and enthusiasm. You and Kim are awesome!
Hope you have a great birthday , Kaleb! Keep up the good work 😄
Thank you! Will do!
For the faucet stopper, perhaps if you asked the guys at "This Old House" that shows in PBS (in eastern PA). The plumber has been around for years and years. He might have some ideas.
Bead boards are looking great keep up the great work! Also loving the Buc-ee's shirt lol.
I didn't know about Bucee's until Kim said she liked to go there. I am missing out. Never been.
Variety is the spice of life it looks good
Love the Buc-ees shirt!!! Good to see you're a believer in the Beaver! 😀
I hope you had the happiest of birthdays last week. I so enjoy watching your channel. Thanks again for sharing your lives with UA-cam!
