    How many 2x12's for this beam?

    What am I missing here? You have 6x6 post 12" o/c that puts about 7 1/2 " of air space between posts. I would think you could use a 2x4.

    1000 Sq Ft Retirement Home

    Yes Mike931x, now that I look at it again it does look like concrete, my bad. I thought I was looking at the house floor and couldn't picture it being concrete.

    My biggest concern is your flooring. It looks like you are going to be months before you get it closed in and a roof on and unless you have waterproof or treated plywood you are really going to have a problem. I can see water on the floor now,it won't be long before it starts to buckle.

    Make me a smoke bomb

    Thanks for the replies, I was thinking about a small fire but with it being pretty air tight I don't know how it would burn but now that I think about it , it would probably just smolder, just what I was looking for.

I have replaced all the seals and siliconed all the rest but the beads always seem to find a way out and when I'm done I'm slip sliding in glass beads. It's not drastic but just a pain in the neck. So my thought...

    Pressure washer won’t start

    Hit it with a shot of starting fluid. If you at least get a pop out of it or it tries to start you have a fuel problem.
