holy shit dude...I love it.
You also look like you're set up for the perfect bbgun shooting range up against that back wall there.

Looks so cozy, I wanna roll around in your grass bro.
All homo.

 

A bb range isn't a bad idea

I did shoot my .22 into the hill a few times before I dug it out to put the wall in

Thanks man, the grass did come in pretty good. I can't wait to fertilize it in the spring

 

I have a long yard, and I set up a few cans here and there to shoot with the old rifle bb my grandpa bought me when I was 13.
Do it! A couple of beers...and a bb gun...what else does a guy need !

okay, maybe a pair a tits every once in a while.

 

 

Looks good chris.

 

Damn man that looks good. Come fix my yard. It is not going as well as that.

 

Well I got tired of having crappy blue tarps covering my firewood and I opted for some real covers. The ones that came with the wood cradles were absolute garbage, the first time I tried to put one on and tie it to the cradle the whole tie ripped off in my hand, so I said F those and threw them away. These covers were a LOT higher quality and look like they're going to work just fine, highly recommend them for anyone with wood piles

Haven't visited this thread in a few months, the latest updates are that both of my firewood cradles sunk into the ground and toppled over

So I need to build out a platform for them to sit on and reset them....

Also finally moving forward with the bathroom remodel. I picked up a matching medicine cabinet to go with the vanity/sink that I have

And I have a vendor coming this week to give me an estimate on replacing the tub/shower to get this thing rolling. More updates hopefully to come soon!

 

Just ordered a whole new shower, cha ching!

 

Got some big plans in the man cave/basement area coming. Realized yesterday that I never posted actual pics of the wine and beer fridge so here they are.

Some good updates to come in here shortly

 

Link? Need some of these...

 

Here ya go, these are the ones I got

 

 

Just went through all 23 pages. Great job so far! How did the first guy stiff ya? Pay in full and never finish the job? Keep em coming!

 

He did a half ass job on the wall, tore up 3 of my neighbors yards and refused to fix them, and ran off with my fence materials money at the end and quit answering my phone calls, total douche.

 

So this thread will definitely be ramping up in a few weeks, I have the new shower coming in the bathroom and I have picked up vanities and faucets for both rooms, a mirror for the powder room, a medicine cabinet for the main bathroom as well as a light fixture for one of the 2 rooms, just have to settle on the other light fixture and I'm pretty much all set for the full makeovers. My spare room has become quite the bathroom remodeling display center lately

What a total dick! Poor workmanship is just pure laziness to me.

 

Yep, it's still sore spot for me. I need to track him down so I can take him to small claims court. I ended up having to pay for my yard twice

 

At least it was worth it. Looks great!

 

Thanks man

 

Shower guy is coming tomorrow to take final measurements!

 

Things are getting underway

 

Does he know that you call him "shower guy"?
Or would you be afraid he might take that as an unintended invite?

 

Last minute addition of a glory hole?

 

Afraid? Unintended?

 

I dunno, but he hopped right in...

 

Final measurements taken, the new tub and wall liners are ordered, installation is scheduled for the first week of May!

 

Also found out that my buddy who is a plumber that was going to help me install my sink/vanities has cancer so I'm going to have to find someone else.

 

Sorry to hear about your buddy! Hopefully you will be able to kick the cancer.

 

Thanks man, it's a bummer, I wished him a speedy recovery when I talked to him yesterday

 

Dang that's shitty about the cancer Ack. Best of luck to him to quickly get past it.

 

You sure he just didn't want to help you?
God, I'm such a dick.

soory in advance.
I could totally not click "post" and you'd never know.
but I already thought it so I'm going to hell anyway.

 

I hadn't even asked him yet

 

Bye bye annoying glass doors and 6 ft headache bar

Dude works fast



Honestly not as bad as I expected behind the old shower, a bit of mold but not at all as bad as I thought it would be

He cut out the drywall and replaced all the pipes, added a new valve junction, and also added 2 cut off valves accessible from the access panel in the bedroom since I didn't have those before

Can't wait to see how it looks when it's finished.

 

Glad to hear you are finally getting underway.

 

Nice, Ack you keeping the original bathtub?

 

Yeah, it's a steel tub, and a bitch to get out so I used Bath Fitter, they put a new tub over the existing so I don't have to cut the steel tub out of the wall

 

all my bathrooms I put new cast iron tubs in... don't like the feel of standing in a plastic/fiberglass tub

 

Must be nice, I'm sure that cost a ton. I wasn't crazy about doing an acrylic tub, but cost-wise it was the best way to go. Also I'm planning to sell my house in a year or 2 so I didn't want to break the bank too bad.

 

I've literally never thought about what kinda tub material I was standing in until now...
Now I'll pay attention!
