Re: House Projects

Re: House Projects

I took on my kitchen and living room for a remodel this yr. I think my upstairs and bathroom will be happening next yr, plus with all the freebies I've picked up looking to do a budget sauna possibly in spring. In the mean time enjoying my new wood stove on a cool night. Moved the window over the kitchen sink over 3', removed a large picture window and replaced it with a.sliding patio door, removed a entry door on the north side of the house and cut in a new window in centered on the wall. Just finished siding repairs this past weekend and added supports for my deck extension for next yr.

Finally got to work on my car, brought the head in and had new guides, valves, and 8 seats done. Fired it up tonight, fun to start it and not see copious amounts of smoke from the tail pipe. Can't wait to drive it!! 2-4 yrs of the car being down actually should be good now. I

That wood stove is awesome. And the whole interior looks very cool, rustic looking kinda. I like it!

Thanks for the kind words! It is very different from how it was originally. The house is just north of Duluth 1/2 way to Two Harbors so it is very fitting to be more cabin like. Added in a before picture of the kitchen as well as before and after for our front entryway.

Re: House Projects

Started on the lighting in the 3 stall area. Got 4 cans mounted, and 4 to go. So in total 12 cans are up and working, and 4 to go. And then mount the 2 more fans and wire those up!

Re: House Projects

Looks great. Doing these yourself?

My two bulb garage is feeling anemic! May have to upgrade the lighting, it's long overdue.

Re: House Projects

Yeah all myself. Its pretty simple. The garage feels so much more well lit. Ceiling fluorescents mat have been a,little better but I'm pretty happy with this and was so simple and cheap it's hard to beat!

Re: House Projects

Been updating facebook but figured i would throw a few pictures in here, sorry if it's a lot, I trimmed a lot out haha. Should be done with foundation today, then waterproofing and drain tile tomorrow if weather cooperates, then backfill Saturday/Monday and then framing starts Tuesday if all goes well, which is doubtful with the forecast but hoping.

Re: House Projects

Ugh, why doesn't this site resize photos automatically lol. Is there an easy way to do that??

I feel like I ask this all too often...I should probably know now...ugh.

edit: well I redid the sizes on imgur and redid the post, now it works. Bummer that it's needed but oh well, they look much better now.

Re: House Projects

Few more updates:

Sorry for so many pictures, hopefully it's not too overboard, just excited to get this damn thing moving!

Starting to backfill today and rough framing tomorrow, should start looking like a house soon.

Re: House Projects

Getting to the tail end of phase 1 of this winters garage mods. The ceiling fans are mounted. All the ceiling cans are up. Only thing left is to finish off the wiring and install the switches exactly where I want. So probably 1 more day worth of work and it should be done.
