Jim,
How about a photo or two of your progress? I know all of us would like a peek.
hugs, Brandi
Hi folks,
yes I have taken a few pictures, if the come out will post them. Put up the last big sheet of ply yesterday. 1 ore small sheet, weird shape & the ply is done. Have a 10" board to block part of the door way & some small boards to go across the top. Then its take down a few boards that are temp. Put up 2 shelves yesterday. They are pretty junked up, but plan to put up some more & that will cure that problem. Lot o paint smearing to go. Most of it can be rolled on & I have a HPLV sprayer when I get ready for final paint. A little at a time will put up trim boards to hide some more ugly. Most of the plastic is gone, except the south side. May replace it some time, just got sick of the plastic. Had I ever even thought about closing the deck in, things would have been done differently. Home Depot has some lumber in the back of the store that has some blemishes & is 70% off. Ply is better & cheaper that the old stuff I had. Got some shelf brackets & sanding belt for $30 & change.
About 70/80$ worth of normal cost. Will stock up some later, always needing boards for some project.
Luck is holding, was doping off on the way home, sipping a beer & didn't slow down soon enough when the 5 mph came up. Got lit up, thought oh crap here I go. Turned out to be a real nice gun, Checked to make sure I was not a criminal & make sure I had insurance. He poured out my beer, told me the rules on open containers & then sent me on my way. When leaving town will get a milk shake or coffee to sip on way home. + plus not making plans as I drive.
Plan to get a cheap spray gun, small nail gun & a belt sander. Maybe payday. Don't have many things that I really need at the present time.
Little at a time I keep finding more things stolen. Don't miss them until I want to use them. 5.5" Skill saw, Another skill saw, Belt sander, nail guns, ( real good metal one.) & 3 Collector model engines.
OH well life goes on & I have everything I really need, so should not really complain. Just thank the Lord for what I do have.
Happy days ahead.
Getting deck closed in just in time, cooling off pretty quickly. Hail yesterday first time I have ever seen it here, sure cooled things off in a hurry.
More later
Jim
