    I have 6 zones, and asked to get a 7 zone manifold installed

    Having the foresight to provide the option for future expansion is never a bad idea. I built a stainless manifold for the closed loop system for my house heating system. I had planned for future installation of a heat dump system that would double as a heater for my attached garage, DHW HX...

    The buck I've been after for two seasons now was hit by a truck Saturday night. I just found out today. :o 14 pt scored 160ish. Had him figured out last year but every time I knew he would be coming through it was always 30 minutes before legal shooting time. I was in the stand twice...

    Spent some time relaxing this morning in a treestand. Big 8 pointer was bumping a group of 5 does around in the woods. 2 of them split off and went into the cut bean field 30 yards in front of me, and the other 3 stayed in the woods. The buck turned to follow the 2 in front of me and stopped...

    A shame is right. He actually still has my prints. But I also have a digital copy. It was just one guy who built it, had a helper a few times but I put a lot of time in helping him on my days off. I guess you just have to double check everything no matter who it is these days. No...

    Garage Door Torsion Springs Broken

    I unwound both springs and removed the cable system on my 10x10 door only to reinstall everything and retension the springs just today. It’s dangerous sure, but so is driving to work every day. Pick and choose your own battles, I won’t belittle anyone who errs on the side of caution and...

    Yep I ended up paying a good chunk less than what I owed in the end. It doesn’t really make up for anything other than what I can fix myself. A complete tear off of the roof, eaves, purlins, trusses, etc...is out of the question at this point unfortunately. Had I caught it prior to...

    I parted ways with the builder yesterday. I noticed as I began prepping the truss bottom chords for plastic that the spacing was a little off. I figured 1/2" here and there wouldn't be a big deal, but the narrowest spacing was 45 1/2" and the widest spacing was 50" on the south end of the...

    Spray foam should be next week sometime. I applied foam board on the interior of the wainscoting so I can replace one of the panels if damaged in the future, but the rest of the walls will be directly sprayed upon. Trying to seal it up as best as I can so I’m having 1” of foam sprayed then...

    Not enough slope for garage bathroom sewer

    FWIW, my Saniflo macerating toilet system I installed 4 years ago in my basement has been flawless. Aside from being slightly expensive, I've been super pleased with it.

    Anyone remove windows from pole barn?

    No windows at all in my 48x64x14. Trying to keep it as sealed up as possible so no windows.

    Post Recession Shop Rehabilitation Project

    I worked for KTM from 2007-2008 when David Knight was running the show in GNCC. I rarely saw him sit down, but then again, being 6'4" I don't think he ever touched the seat! Regardless, those rock hard seats carried over to their ATV lineup while I was there and those guys definitely had their...

    What did your wiring cost? Trying to get a consensus...

    Tons of variables but here's mine so far. New construction 48x64 with a 200 amp feed. Details in the link in my sig. Installed new underground service for 400 amp meter base for 2 separate 200 amp service disconnects. One for the house and the other to feed the shop. $2,700 for the POCO to...

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    What did you do "IN" your garage today? ‘Tis the mouse trap season! I fired up the outdoor wood burner and got my 800 gallons of storage up to 185*. Had to remove the clean out cap and knock a bunch of creosote buildup out of the elbow. Works much better now.

    I'm on the gutterman's schedule to have seamless gutters and downspouts installed. Could really use them right now as the rain has set in. I also received a sprayfoam quote for 1" thick closed cell. Unfortunately he is about 4 weeks out on being able to do any work as he's pretty busy. So I...

    I'm not one for crappy pictures, but here's a crappy picture. Got back from Menard's a bit late picking up the second entry door. The wainscoting is up on 3.5 sides and things are getting closer to the finish line for the builder. The 12x12 OH door header needs framed in and the siding...
