I decided not to glue the ends, just because I was nervous about putting glue down that would maybe hurt the floating abilities. I know that without the end glue I will have to do this again perhaps as much as yearly. And, I decided not to try to fix the low spots with great stuff, seemed like waaay too much could go wrong.
But the massive gaps are now safely at the under the wall skirting or maybe a bit out from it where the gaps were really huge. My shoe tread alone was not enough to really fix the gaps. (okay, I should blame the shoes, I'm just a wimp)
But, the floor gap fixer did the trick. There was obviously no glue used in the tongue and groove because I could go to the end of the line, attach the tool, and whack from the end to close all the gaps. I didn't have to close each gap one board at a time. I know that without the end glue, and with the wheelchair usage, I will probably have to do this again perhaps a couple of times a year. But I am happy with the results.
I absolutely loved this guy's video of a home made tool and that he called it the
Whack-a-Do. But, I went the lazy way and bought the 'Tool Gap Fixer'. I still call it the Whack-a-Do though, because that is just too awesome.
Thanks everybody with your help!!!
