Just did my hallway and the walk through the living room.

Here is the hallway. Ill do the doorways when I figure out the transitions, the wood is thicker then the laminate.

Its cherry tounge and groove, glue together 3" strips. If you ever do this style of flooring make sure your glue is good before you buy it, better yet dont buy this type of flooring and get the click together kind.

Tomorrow I start the living room, more cherry but its the click together laminate.

When thats done I might try to get a bunch of this (http://www.br111.com/product_lines/product_specs/tigerwood_eng.html) for the master bedroom.

Looks like a really nice job! Sounds like it was a pain to do though. I think if I ever get flooring done in my place, I'll have them install it for me. I can just see me messing up measurements and it being all wonky looking, lol.

If your walls are straight, mine arent hence the gaps, you only have to measure the first 3 cuts. Unless you are using multiple colors in a pattern like my computor room.

There isn't any wall, floor, ceiling or whatever straight in this house. It's crazy. Gotta love old houses. I know me, and I know I don't have the patience or attention span to do something tedious like that.

I always love old houses due to the amount of detail they have, like you described, tons of curves.
