This is a recipe for a dang ol DAYve! Besides the shower, of course!Bushed....shower > whiskey > porkchop > bed.
I almost cut an artery trying to hang from one when my ladder slipped. Try an avoid going in solo with those tasks!1/4 done on this side. Its wild how much harder the metal is to drill through when it's this cold.
Inside warming up for 15 and back at it.
Bonus, almost sliced my thumb off on the second panel when it slipped.
This shit is no joke...28foot panels have mass when they're coming at you.
You guys are drilling them out on the ground right? Normally we just stack them up on saw horse and drill them all at the same time, that way the screw holes all line up perfectly and once you get on the roof just impact the screws in.1/4 done on this side.

Nope. Just lift them up to the temp retaining ledge and screw in place.You guys are drilling them out on the ground right?

Great progressNope. Just lift them up to the temp retaining ledge and screw in place.
Worked fine, we had some pretty true perlens continuous.
I screwed what I could reach from the lift (BEEP!) and my buddy, who was harnessed and tied in (BEEP?) did the rest. While he was doing that me and the kid would get the next piece staged on the lift and ready to go.
No kidding, the 3rd man made all the difference for time, we were rolling pretty good. Got done around 2, which was an hour past when we rented it and another hour drive to return.
They started to give me shit about being late and I cut that right off. "This piece of shit cost us at least 3 man hours by randomly shutting down for periods of time. If anything, you owe me money" and that was the end of that noise.
Absolutely beat and my day ain't done.
The kid literally leaves for trade school tomorrow so today is my last chance to use him like a rented mule. He's grabbing a friend in about 45min and coming to my property to help move my furniture into my container.
FormerMrsMedic took the bed so I've been sleeping on the couch. When we chuck this thing into storage I'm officially sleeping in my bros guestroom I guess.
Not too much. There are small "mouse proof" vents top of each corner that seem to be factory, both containers have them. Makes sense, they seal tight and need to be able to vent with altitude changes or they'd explode lolConcerned about moisture
Ok my vents might be factory thenNot too much. There are small "mouse proof" vents top of each corner that seem to be factory, both containers have them. Makes sense, they seal tight and need to be able to vent with altitude changes or they'd explode lol
Although it looks like I'll be transporting this furniture in the rain/snow, which is just great.
Propane puts out humidityOk my vents might be factory then
You can always dry the unit out a bit with one of those lil buddy propane heaters a few times
Haha, got me therePropane puts out humidity
Lol, awesomeThey started to give me shit about being late and I cut that right off. "This piece of shit cost us at least 3 man hours by randomly shutting down for periods of time. If anything, you owe me money" and that was the end of that noise.
Awesome, time for a warm bath, fire, beer and chili
Finish a couple things, but some will wait til spring.Does that mean we get a snow day? What's the plans on completion? Work through the winter?
Looks great
That was a guest shack/MIL kind of structure. Was here when my friend bought the property. He always just used it for storage. It's gnarly in there, way past it's expiration date. Will be deconstructed and off to the landfill.Looks great
what is the little building next to it
