    Looking to start insulating

    Hah! The Marlboro garage can't breathe... No, I kid. $5k for closed-cell spray foam is too much. Just the walls? You'd never recoup in energy savings.

    picts of your in-floor heat set ups.

    here's an internet guy who installed radiant as a retro fit under floorboards with aluminum flashing. his site is all about low-cost living, so he breaks down exactly how much it costs and the electric kwh etc. http://www.mrmoneymustache.com/2015/02/06/the-radiant-heat-experiment-did-it-work/

    My dream 60x96x16

    a lovely sentiment, sir. But it's hard to reconcile such pious humility with your 2011 rap album "Sims5 Makes it Rain: Luv My Bling". The Source magazine in its review said "not since the heyday of Ike Turner have we seen such a tour de force of aggro pimp swag".

    thought you might appreciate this Archilovers post depicting a modern-design home on the coast in Cadiz, Spain. I thought of your build when I looked at how they used limestone tile throughout: http://www.archilovers.com/projects/132045/house-of-the-infinite-vt-house.html

    Did the sewer repair mess up any of that nice brick paver work? all that dirt and gravel you had placed there only to have it so rudely dug up... thanks for being cool about it - I did refrain from knocking :-)

    I knew I'd seen this somewhere! Great build, really admire the progress and your attention to detail with the build diary posts. You should acquire the lot across the street and construct a garage mahal. I think you did a lot up front in an otherwise tight spot on a busy street. the garage...

    I know you were kidding about using PVC for your compressor air lines, but i think you ought to consider this better alternative to standard black pipe: Rapid Air's hand-flexible Maxline tubing. Advantages include - a blend of HDPE and aluminum multilayer tubing - direct burial, on wall and in...
