    Ok, Paint's done finally. The window wells/skylights were a PITA. IMG_20190426_133226749 by Richard, on Flickr IMG_20190423_195906239 by Richard, on Flickr IMG_20190423_195849008 by Richard, on Flickr I found a place for my map back on the wall. This is a big laminated paper map glued...

    Wellcome to Siberia

    I always thought The Big Hit was underrated. No it's not oscar material, but it is hilarious and my friends and I occasionally quote it to this day. Cobra is entertaining as well in it's own, "Dirty Harry done in the style of Rambo / Judge Dredd" way. On-topic, I also just found this thread...

    Not much progress today. I'm struggling with a couple of probably inconsequential things that are bothering me. As you can see in the pictures the block and sill plate protrude into the room ~5 or so inches compared to the drywall which creates a ledge, which I've now trimmed-over for...

    My main challenge going forward will be to somehow move back in without just re-cluttering. I feel like I was really under-utilizing my tool box / workbench storage before. I now also have some potential for attic storage, though again the trusses were not set up to provide any deliberate...

    That situation served me well for nearly two years. However, I live in Tennessee....so humidity happens in the summer, and in spite of what anyone from the Northeast might suggest, it does get cold enough here for your fingers to not quite work right in the winter. The plan was always to...

    Some key details: The oddball roofline mirrors the house. This was my requirement, not any HOA or town...because resale and aesthetics :) At the same time they were running power to the garage, I had them run ethernet cable in conduit in the same trench because I'm a nerd and need my internet...

    Where to start. This post/thread is long overdue given that I've been lurking on the forum for the better part of a decade. As I'm approaching done with what I'll call "Garage 4.0" for me it's the first one I've actually been able to finish out to the degree that I feel like it's worth...
