    Yes they will. I wasn’t sure but got pretty happy when they mailed me asking to get my protective porch in place when they’d be back to fix the finishing. For free. The damage was sort of my fault. They have warned me it could have happened and even then I took my time to order the porch. And...

    Thanks guys! It makes me sad to reply man, because no, not many. We are about to start getting really angry. To cut the story short, the security-door guys started installing the doors around Christmas. They have not finished yet. The contractor broke my living room concrete floor open...

    The idea is a coming home feel. I don't see us using the front door very much. We're not into receiving people, we are as private and introverts as it gets. It means that we'll probably always come home by car, through the garage. The garage is all brick, concrete floor and metal. You walk...

    So, I come to find some wood getting sliced in pieces. That’s what the wood is for! Embedding the boards inside the cement. Pretty sturdy: It is called garapia. Concrete will remain exposed: Sealed! And that’s the final result! Hope you like. Until the next one! Enviado do meu...

    Killing time in a small "2 car" garage

    Cars without TC off aren’t proper drivers cars. Mine came without it. I fixed the problem immediately. I agree with your definition. I will start calling it the fun level 12 button. Enviado do meu iPhone usando Tapatalk

    It is a point to point unidirectional box. Pretty simple and cheap, nothing fancy. It means that it is not a proper fence per se, I need to overlap two beamers at corners pointing at different directions. The only extra care I will have is ensuring that I get three beams emitters. It means...

    The cobalt one looks neat! I like the black model. If it was up to me, it could’ve been matte black! Stealth version. Enviado do meu iPhone usando Tapatalk

    Yes, my wife is also blond and green eyed [emoji3] We won’t have a bidet. It is not common here. It used to be maybe until 70’s and then it just wasn’t. We thought about it later when we stayed at a hotel with one but it was already too late. The festool sander costs around 2000USD. You could...

    Christmas update! As you can imagine the build is moving slowly now. It shouldn’t have dragged itself to Christmas. The plan was that I’d be moving in by now. Christmas is in mid summer here. It gets hot as hell. The local tradition is to stop everything, flee to the beach shores and only pick...

    Thanks Cris, it has an electrical motor triggered by a remote control. The motor is installed at the side of the door. It pulls a chain that guides a wheel up or down through this metal guide. It is pretty standard here. 10 out of 10 houses use it. This is why I wanted those with the ceiling...
