Thanks guys. I appreciate it. Hope to get a lot done tonight after work. The new poles get installed tomorrow morning which will allow the old old pole in the middle of the room to come out. Hopefully. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wind - 1 / Insulation - 0 All I needed was one sheet of 4x8 3/4” insulation for the area above the fireplace. This part is smaller than the rest to make the wall flush. Had it on the cart made for hauling this type of thing, lumber etc. came out of the big box store and a huge gust of wind...

Half bath is looking good. This configuration is probably about half the size of the original half bath. Got some electrical done today and some other odd ball jobs. Not done for the night yet though. Have to keep grinding. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just picked up the two new lally columns. Funny thing is, in the beginning, I was so motivated to reinforce the beam to get rid of the column in the middle of the room and now I’m using the columns to my advantage. The columns were $75 each. So $150 compared to $4700 to reinforce the beam. I’m...

Back to the big box store after work for a little more lumber, pre-hung door for the half bath and some other odds and ends. Have to go pick up the new lally columns from the hardware store. Then headed home to get more done. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lol true. My father in law is helping out a lot. Also get help from friends here and there, girlfriend etc. Slowly but sure, it’s getting there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Big progress made this weekend. The footers are officially poured. This job absolutely sucked by the way. The footer that had to go under the furnace was a nightmare. But it’s done. Time to move on to something else. 15 days until this all has to be finished out. Sent from my...

Half bath roughed in. Kind of. Still needs some work but it’s taking shape. The half bath they had down here before was huge. Wasted space in my opinion. This half bath will be small, but functional. That’s all we need. We angled the door wall with the hopes of having a full cue or damn near...

Lol thanks man I appreciate it. The switch for the well is a good idea. Definitely beneficial. Might do that at our place. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks man. I appreciate that. Running out of time. Deadline is getting close. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That looks a nice product. There’s a lot of products out there that you could easily spend some good money on. We simply don’t have the funds for it so we’re going bare bones with this build out for now. One good thing about this place is that my great uncle put in a few swales years ago to...

Got some more framing and insulation done today. Framing should be done tomorrow hopefully. My father in law will be tackling the framing while iim digging out/pouring the two footers. Footers will be 24x24x12” deep. One should be easy and the other will be a pain in the ass. 25% of the second...

Not the most exciting update but I made two stops after work today before heading home. Picked up a nice used set of centennials (should clean up nicely) at a steal of a price then went and got a jump start on gathering the wall material. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m really not wanting traditional drywall. Glad to hear you like the painted look that you did. We are almost 100% on painting all of ours black and being done with it. Then later, as time and money allows, replace the old copper pipes with pex, insulate everything and put a nice drop ceiling...
