    House Construction w/PICs

    Looking good. I also am wondering what's up with the trim on the top of the porch, etc. Some of the fascia/deck looks like cedar/redwood- if that's the case, are you just going to seal it and let it be, or are you painting it? Get some plants and mulch around the base of that house and it'll go...

    Too much clutter

    Hey- what did you use to fill the seams in between the sheets of siding? I hope to get around to building a largish shed in the backyard this summer and am in the process of collecting knowledge toward that. Looks like yours has lots of space.

    You just pretty closely described what I got when I bought this place. If I wasn't spending so much time and effort on the rehabbing the actual house attached to it, I might have closed it in already. Mine's stupid overbuilt, IMHO, but I know it's not going anywhere. Lemme go shoot a picture...

    Impact only?

    I think most people probably wind up with regular non-impact sockets by default. All my sockets came as part of two tool sets I have been given over the years, one all-metric when I was about 17, courtesy mom and dad, and one metric/SAE combo shortly after I got married from my inlaws. I've not...

    New construction 28x48 in NH

    I was thinking the same thing, and was relieved when I saw poured foundation walls. Those footings looked like I poured them. :lol_hitti :headshake
