First construction injury this month for Steve. Not much of anything else new around here this month. We have been getting up early everyday and trying to do something in the house. It isn't exciting, but there are a fair share of problems most days so it is interesting. We never know what to expect next. I think that's the way it is when you decide to do your own general contracting on a house build.
While using the angle grinder, the cut off wheel broke and sliced the top of Steve's knuckle open.
Dr. Anna stitched Steve up with 7 stitches. That exam room chair was almost as uncomfortable as the injury.
Gari takes a spin on our neighbor's 4 wheeler in the front yard.
The metal workers have been here for a couple of weeks and have most of the siding and roof completed. It is looking almost finished on the outside, but is far from finished on the inside. Looking northwest below. We call this the back of the house. At frame right is what we call our front door on the east side of the house, but we call the east side the side. haha.
Looking north east below. We call the right side of the frame the back of the house. We will put the A/C compressor and the LP tank back there.
Looking southwest below. We call the right side of the frame the front of the house, but there is no door there, haha, that's the way we roll.
We took on installing the porch ceiling to save $10k. Gari points at a detail. We completed about 15 ft of ceiling on our first day of installation. We learned a number of things and discovered a few framing problems that we are correcting. Fun, fun, fun.
