May 13+14






Progress continues on the rockwall! Slowly though, but it's going to look real good. Inside, on the other hand, is continuing to deconstruct itself. I'v had to redo the " Control panel" in the bathroom due to the wall moving out an inch to properly fit the bath. The bathroom circuits are also now wired to the main breaker and I'v wired the bathroom fan.!! woot ...fans!!!

In the hall way, we are installing the smoke detectors and the lights. The lights are going to be two sets of track lights conected with an "L" conector..... which .... doesn't exist in grey..... the same colour of our tracks. We also will need to cut them for them to fit.

This is stupid. I havent had a light in my room for about.. 5 months. I hope we can finish the electrical soon, but this shouldnt get in the way of the bathroom, the rockwall, the yard........


WHEN WILL IT END?!!

Rockwall started

Finally after 1 year of planning, the rockwall is finally getting built. The rock wallers arrived some time last week to drop off all the rocks, concrete, and sand. Today they started the front. The wall is made of a mix of rocks, but I think it's mostly granite.

Bathtub arrived.

Yes finally after two failed deliveries, the tub has arrived. How the f*** did they get it into the house? It is a tub/ shower combo unit, with leds and air jets, thats why its so big. To get it into the bathroom eventually, we had to cut a hole in the wall of the bathroom.
That's the 12" shower head for the shower... it's also not the only one.. yes this was my dads idea.

Some holes filled.

Well now we have a couple holes filled .... i don't know what the story is ... Tristan ... fill me in.
By the look of these pictures, it would seem that my dad hired you.

Re-plumbing the house.

Thanks to our great neighbor Murry, all the piping downstairs has been recessed into the ceiling. As well, he has done all the plumbing for the new bathroom. And new laundry closet( talk about that in a future post.)



As you can see, the pipes are all hanging out everywhere, which is just fine for a basement, but we plan to start finishing the studio soon. That black abs pipe is in its new location so that is doesn't go through the ceiling of the studio.

Lots of progress

Wow I'v been gone for 3 weeks and a lot has happened. Only leaving the house in a more chaotic state. There is no a bunk bed in the front entrance of the house, and piles of rock in the backyard
I'll go over everything in detail in the next few posts. OUR NEIGHBORS LOVE US!
