I paid a bit more than $38. It seems it's only the framing materials they have spiked the prices on. Finish grade stuff isn't so effected by the BS. Quote:
Concrete form. Trying to make a better transition from stone to concrete and give a better path back to the shed side the barn is moving into |
Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
$38 per sheet for fir is about what it was here the last time I checked. I also looked at LP Smart Siding for a little less.
I noticed the lumber yard I used to manage inventory is way down and I asked if it was intentional and was told lumber is just hard to get. They have a number of outages regularly. And that is the way of the new owners among their other companies as well even before the covid. |
Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
In winterizing our camper for last winter I found the fresh water pump no longer worked so I kept it in mind and now it's time to de-winterize it so today I went looking for the pump. Lands sakes alive. They hid that thing. Luckily the pump still runs so I had to track it down by sound. It's in a small hole under the cookware in a cabinet no where near plumbing fixtures. On top of that when installed they ran the four mounting screws down into the rubber mount so far the rubber closed up nearly covering the screws enough I could not get a socket on them for removal. I ended up using a dremmel tool with snake attachment and small cut off disk to cut away the rubber around those screws. It will be reinstalled better than that. ;)

You may get an idea how small an area it is to work in. I cannot get my head and hands in there at the same time. :lol:

T-111 was about $35 a couple years ago when I was checking into it. I would need 27 sheets to go around three sides of the pole barn plus a few more for the part that's taller than eight feet. |

Washed the 4Runner and Impala. Cleaned up my shop some and finished up closing in the last end wall over a roll up door with thin tongue and groove. Cut wood for framing bathroom mirrors. I did the first one a few weeks ago.
Hope to get back to the truck next weekend. |

I went to Chili's last week and saw they had brisket on the menu so I ordered it. What a disappointment.. It was a stringy pot roast lookin very small portion laid on a thick garlic pasted slice of toast. I'm afraid they don't know what good brisket is supposed to be like. I won't order that again. |
Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Grilled T-Bone (no, not that guy!) steaks for dinner. CostCo was out of lamb, which was our first choice. Well, they had the ribs, but all that fat and bone for that kind of money is out of the question.

I only go there because the wife likes it. :lol: Baby back ribs are all I care for there but I thought I would at least try the brisket. I asked for corn on the cobb without garlic too. Guess what, stinking garlic butter all over it. Much to my displeasure most restaurants these days think they have to cover everything in garlic butter. I absolutely hate garlic! The smell makes me sick. Some folks love it. Even Sonic has a garlic butter burger now. errrrrrrrr !

I finally started removing the barn boards from the outside of the barn. I am going to work on the ends in the next couple of days. There was an old Vacuum milking machine up on a shelf so I got the skid loader out and was able to get it out from outside the building. LockDoc |

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
It's so sad that barn got destroyed by a freak storm. Just plain bad luck. You've got quite a project ahead. Not that it hasn't been already. I wish I was near enough to come help
