Doing all the plumbing, mechanical, electrical, and HVAC yourself too?

Had to ask, because that's the part of construction work I've done... did it much too long. Got sick and tired of it. That's why I do computer maintenance now.

Ugh, tell me about it. What I hate the most about it is when you have to drill a hole or saw some wood... and the shavings stick anywhere and everywhere they can possibly find to stick on yourself. Yuck.

Taking shape nicely. Was meaning to ask you but then you had that accident. Nasty.

Yeah Vass I was fixing the links....they had .JPG instead of .jpg ...DOH... fixed now..

The only things we didn't do were the
HVAC
hanging & taping drywall (despise it)
grading
foundation blockwork

All the rest we are doing.

Wrist is getting better, gotta go to therapy for a few more weeks...still pretty tight

Yeah can imagine with them steel rods pining the wrist. Pain less now?

Thats a pretty awesome job on the house though. I put in a new sink/vanity and felt it was too big an effort.

I'm going to the lake, guys....

The wife wants me to rebuild the back fence, but it's just too stinkin' hot!

I convinced her that fishing would be healthier

PS: It looks like you've make quite some progress there Cruez.
