Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Finished the tile on the shower 24 hours and I'll grout it . Now to start the floor first thing is to set up the radiant floor heat

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Great to see done I'm sure. I can't wait to get started on my tile work in the one bathroom this winter.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Had to put a new door in the kitchen . Got tired of using the seal n peel caulk every winter. Was a little shocked to see no flashing or at least tar paper on the sill or jack studs so I used the protect wrap . Found this on the molding little weird as the house was built in 1972. Maybe the carpenters birthday? Or the established date of the company that did the house?

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Sat in the deer stand for a few hours with my daughter's boyfriend early this morning. Saw a few does and one small buck but nothing worth the effort once it was down.
Loaded up a small trailer that was my father in laws and I will tear the wood floor out, repaint the frame, and install a new wood floor. Use it behind my atv around my place after I fix it up. Started tearing the wood off this afternoon but needed to finish up installing the new outside lights by the garage doors so I could say I finished at least one thing.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Thanks I did screw up a little around the shelf . It was planned for larger tile and the grout lines would have lined up with the bottom and top. No cut tiles like it has now

i guess i'm not the only one who does it. ever since i started roofing in 1980 i have been throwing current year quarters in our roofs... haven't ever come across any of them, but i have found other stuff like cigarette packs from the '70's and '80's. prob got a thousand bucks in quarters out there in peoples roofs...lol What started out as just a simple re-paint today, turned into a 4 hr job re-building my shed door roof. Went to slap some paint on the door and the roof and found it dry-rotted. When the wife's clothesline pole took a dive a few yrs ago, it musta hit the roof. Flashing was buckled and leaking, and of course i never noticed.... when i re-stood the pole back up i dumped 4 bags of concrete around it, but wife still managed to put some lean into it, so i also bolted it to the shed and cut off the dry-rotted top didn't take a before, but this was from 2 winters ago |

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
It’s funny, I can tell your pretty detail oriented. Your probably like me, those little things drive you nuts but no one else will probably ever given it any further thought. I did a bunch of mud work on some of the walls in my my house late last summer into early October. There’s a few spots that drive me crazy after we got the walls painted, my wife couldn’t find them if I paid her $1,000 too.
This afternoon I made a couple of Green Chile apple pies with my little girl. She turns 6 this week. Crazy how time flies. Us New Mexicans(even adopted like my self) will put green Chile in anything ![]() I let my daughter put the lattice weave on. I think she did a pretty good job. I really didn’t do much to help her. I actually enjoy baking quite a bit.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Looks great Tim. I did my slab in the garage at my rental when I lived there . Even doing all the labor it was expensive . I ran the electric myself also here you can do electric without a license. But you need to pass a small exam to do plumbing.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Fixing existing plumbing is no problem but anything new requires a test or a licensed plumber. I took it to put a new sink in my bar . Not a hard test at all but I said to the examiner (town building inspector) why they do it for plumbing and not for electricity and I added I never heard of anyone drowning doing pipes but have heard of people getting shocked doing electric. His response was I guess the plumbers union is stronger than the electricals

I bought this one for $1000.00. Going to some friends down at the beach. He is on Oxygen all the time so it's going be for him to ride around in the yard with his grand daughter.
I installed a 400amp Alltrax controller and ITS switch this past spring. I'm doing the brakes on it now. Cables were froze up on it had to cut them out with my saw all. New cables ordered. Batteries were still wet but had no water in them. I hope I caught them in time to save them. There only 3 years old. ![]()

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Bath is moving along. Scraped of the old mastic and sealed the plywood , I'm installing radiant heat and it needs a 1/4 inch of mortar or self leveling underlayment I'm going with the self leveler. Have all the expansion joints in and sealed . Made the joints out of 1/2 inch foam board that's about an inch tall I'll just trim it flush to the underlayment and install my flooring . I'm using water proof laminate , if I was tiling I'd just put the heat mesh down and apply thinset.

I imagine that window is set in caulk, pretty permanent. Looks like a warranty issue for them.
