Yeah it looks great BT gut I have a question. When are ya gonna pour a slab? When I was reading through this you said you were, and I was thinking that as soon as you got done with the framing you would pour it and encase the bottoms of the posts in concrete, but since your putting up the walls I'm now out of ideas. Inquiring minds want to know

edit: I own this page

We're not putting the last (bottom) run of tin on yet. We're gonna put a treated board around the outside and aluminum flashing around the posts and pour to the walls when we pour it.

So, how does it feel to own your own page in my shop thread? Ya feel special?

[BulletTrain]

More pics from today's work... Man, it's lookin' a lot like a buildin' now! It's also lookin' fuggin' HUGE!

Check it out...

aaahh I see, and I don't technically "own" it, kind of like financing a car, your name is on the title but if you look closer there's a lein against it so with that said I own it but you have the lein against it  

 

 

[BulletTrain]

Got me a walk-in door already! Woohoooooo!!!

[BulletTrain]

Another shot of Da' Man in action! By the way, I don't think I've mentioned this but he has just finished losin' a LOT of weight, too. I think he lost well over 100 lbs. I call him "Slim" now. His reply every time is, "Yeah, right...". I guess he still think's he's fat.

[BulletTrain]

And another shot of "Slim".

[BulletTrain]

One last shot for now...

For all intents and purposes, it's yours. You "founded" this page I guess.

WOOOOHOOOO my own page *sniff *sniff, I'd like to thank all the little people, I couldn't have done it without 'ya, now I'm going to Disney World

[BulletTrain]

)

[BulletTrain]

What the hell, one more shot for today. Here's where we stopped.

Don't know which channel. It's just a Disney World commercial where this little girl says "We're goin' to Disney World and I'm gonna wear my Cinderella dress!". Just kind of stuck in my head like a bad song and now every time I hear someone say they're goin' to Disney that line pops into my head.

Yeah, puttin' the tin on horizontal was Pop's idea. He said why but I don't remember.

Should be done in maybe another week or so except for the slab.

Very nice, BT! Is your dad going to help with the electrical as well?

[BulletTrain]

Very nice, BT!  Is your dad going to help with the electrical as well?

Nah, he ain't gonna "help" with electrical, he's gonna DO the electrical. I know absolutely NOTHING about that crap!

I'll hand him shid and pull wire or whatever, but it's far more accurate to say I'll help him instead of sayin' he'll help me. Hehehehehehehe...

[BigBSBusa]

I don't really enjoy electrical stuff myself! I don't mind chasing wires to find out where they lead, but once there I would rather not splice into them. You should have seen me get that undertail wiring straight. Scary stuff!
