Cheers, I’m happy with it but also learned plenty along the way.
The boards were in pretty good nick, so just sanded with a belt sander with 80 then 120 grit. I could foresee that being a nightmare in other circumstances. I hired an edge sander when I realised that doing the edges with a random orbit was going to take forever. Belt sander with an extractor did a great job of minimising dust too, the edge sander less so.
It’s had 2 coats of osmo Polyx, but tomorrow I’m going to try and give it a very light sand with the random orbit, and then a 3rd coat of the Osmo as we’ll be away for a week. We weren’t quite careful enough with foot traffic when it was drying after the second coat, so hopefully this will even out a couple spots. But I must admit I’m probably being a bit daft doing a 3rd coat.

I agree with floor level, and that would have been my priority also.
did you resurface the floor afterwards?
turned out really nice.
you really did an outstanding job.
