Month of May

Well, despite our best intentions and Simon's slacking ways, we missed the Month of May deadline. I did get a chance to finish up the Mother-In-Law suite this Memorial weekend. The only things left is the media room door/wall and the soffit from hell.

After that, it's on to electric and plumbing.

05-07-2006 Mother In-Law room shaping up!

After a long 4 month sabatical, we rededicated ourselves to finish the framing in the month of May. In 2 weeks (yes I was too lazy to do a log last week), we managed to finish the Poker room and moved on to the Mother In-law suite. I estimate that we have 2 more full days of work before we finish the framing and move on to electrical and plumbing which shouldn't be too bad. At least we'll do better then those morons who laid the drain pipe from hell on one of the walls. This will cause us to do some creative framing but nothing 2 guys from VT can't do that a day labor can.

Here's some pics so far. Check out the progress we made!































Here is the picture of the Drain of Hell. See how the 2nd pipe feeds back
to the main stack? If you go look closer up in the joist, you will see
that either the guy is an idiot or he was on crack. The guy could of easily
did all that stuff in the joist without even the 2nd pipe. Because of this
piece of art work, we have to do some creative framing. Yes I know, I could of
redone the drain but hell it's got sh*t flowing thru it now . Mental note for you guys to check your home during construction to see if they do stupid stuff like this. They don't care when they know the basement is not going to be finished during build.
