Next up, that hideous wallpaper...

If you get rid of the wallpaper, the green ceiling won't match anything...

My best impression of @Dylan W.

About 1100 sq ft of red oak hardwood install. About 800 of it was salvaged from the house during demo. What a PITA to reuse that stuff.

Oh and I hate lacing in those 2 1/4" boards into what was already installed.

At least it all wasn't 1 1/2"....looks good!

You guys really make me look like shit for motivation.

I'd post a picture if I accomplished anything that was worth photographing....

Last weekend and week was a 30 square metal roof install. Tear off tin and thousands of cedar shakes, then new metal roof. Damn roofer flaked out on me (plus I fired him since he hasn't showed up since March ), so I had the pleasure of doing the roof myself. Nothing new, just more work I didn't have time for.

Haha. We should hang out. We might be related.

I have been working almost every weekend for the past year. Maybe I should start posting pics on here.

Finally finished scrubbing the place at the lake from the roof to the tars. Been so much rain down this way the outside was almost green.

Built a work table out of an old door. The door knob hole makes for a good drill holder.

Got my building permit Tuesday and been hard at some demo since about 2 on Saturday. Ready for plumbing and some subfloor framing and decking this week. Adding about 700 sq ft to the house and trying to do it as cheap as possible so I'm working like a rented mule to save money.

Found out why i don't have power to the water heater...

I cut it in half earlier today! Going up and over with the repair. 1960 and buried in steel conduit. I'm kinda glad I cut it since I got the the last hot shower.

This was a mini project. My wife saw some like this on the internet, and wanted one since we are having 18 people at our house for Thanksgiving. I grabbed a pallet out of the dumpster at work to use for the feathers, and made the rest from scrap cedar boards I had. She did the painting.

Nicely done. I hate crooked eratic plumbing. That stuff would be even and accurate to the 1/16 if. I ran it.

 

[Fabrik8]

What brand of filter components?

 

[shawn]

What brand of filter components?

Just whatever they sell at Home Depot. Whirlpool, I think. The housings are just standard 4.5x10" cartridge filters. Filter #1 is a 30 micron pleated particulate filter. Filter #2 is a 20 micron carbon. Depending on what sort of longevity I get out of them, I may replace filter #1 with a 4.5x20".

All the shit in the background got demolished after I had the new stuff up and running.

Guessing, 50 -60 lbs

Spent the day today cleaning my shop from top to bottom for the Thanksgiving get together. We have about 50 family members for dinner every year and way easier to have it in the shop.
