The pressure washing did not go as planned. I have some stains from leaves that won't come up. Also have some rust looking spots, don't know what there from.

I decided to clean up the garage so I can pressure wash the floor & seal the concrete next weekend. Its nice not to trip over things anymore. Its also nice to have a truck to hide all the **** in until I build some cabinets

Its been awhile since I've posted. I am done painting the outside. I have all the trim up. I gut the gutters installed. I will now have to do the final grading & then the outside is done.

Military gens are very good & cheap. Heres the one I just bought right from the gov. Its a MEP-002A 5kw diesel gen, 120v-1phase, 120/240v-1phase, 120/208v-3phase. You can get bigger ones from the gov. but this is all I needed.

Try Home Depot. I got 3 32' for around $120 each ( I can't find the receipt for the exact price) plus $79 for del.

Power is on. I backfilled the trench over multiple days so them rain could compact the dirt. I got the fascia and soffits primed & painted. The front battens are on.

I've been busy getting the electrical trench dug, hit 2 pockets of granite. Rotary hammer took care of one & the other I trenched under. Now just waiting for the electrician to pull the cable & power it up.

Any updates?

I got the 4 sides done. I started to put up the soffits, not easy to do by yourself. I had to make some L shaped jigs to hold the hardie plank once I got it up there. Then I put a 2x4 under the hardie plank so I could lift it without it breaking. The fun part is climbing the ladder with no hands...

It's been raining the last 2 weekends. Had a break from the rain today & got some siding up.

Use channel locks to help release it. Then check to make sure the screw in the center of the chuck is tight, should be left hand thread

I have garage doors. One of my coworkers cousin owns a garage door install & repair co. & hooked me up. Both doors are insulated 9 R-value with high lift tracks. I got the back wall siding up while they were installing the doors. So far a good day
