Hey all,

I'm adding a family room and a bedroom on to the double wide. I'm
having the work done, with the interior completely unfinished. I may
have to just varnish or paint the plywood floors and live with that
for a while. Once I've got money (or if there is some left) I'll
finish the walls and floors.

I'm thinking about going to a mill near here and getting some plank
wood for the floor and walls. Has any one done this? I'd like to put
down a plank floor. Do I need the wood to be tongue and groove? If I
just use oak planks for instance and finish them in place, my concern
is the groves that would be left between the planks. How do you handle
that?
