Replace the damaged section of laminate flooring in kitchen.

 Several years ago, a large bowl or something fell off the top of the fridge and damaged the laminate floor. Today I thought it was time to replace that section of flooring. We needed to make a little tool using wire probably from an old coat hanger. The wire tool enabled us to tilt the first panel that was under the kick plate of the kitchen cupboards enough to unsnap and remove the panel. After that it was rather easy getting enough panels removed and to simply replace the damaged panel. Reassembly went quickly.
