I made a hole!
Well, technically the hole was already there and I just uncovered it. Now I have to work out what to do with a big hole in the floor of my wardrobe. It's the old return air duct from long dead ducted heating, and it was a pain to pull out - it started off well with just undoing some screws, but one side was nailed down, then had the strip for the carpet nailed on top as well.
I'm thinking probably a piece of MDF and a carpet mat on top, and maybe something like corflute or thin plastic taped over the hole in the back wall, given it is not very visible (and the wall is masonite, not plaster). For now it just has the ugly space-stealing chipboard box cover back over the top of it to make sure Mr Woof does not use it as an excape route, but it would be nice to have that bit of space useable.
