The HD's by me seem to be ramping up the Milwaukee offerings too. I just bought the Milwaukee chainsaw to add to my Husky 395 and 435 and after using it once I can already tell the only time I'll probably use the 435 moving forward is when my wife is cutting with the Milwaukee.

Kind of hard to believe 2 months have passed already. Since the last update we were able to get on the fascia trim, gable fascia/roof cap pieces, finish framing and get most of the OSB on the walls. I know most people wouldn't put OSB on a pole building but for little additional cost it should...

This is the trick used when you're required to have a septic inspection before selling a house. Using tricks to get a better perc on your own property would only result in your system or repair being undersized for your need.

Give your power company a call and see what they say. At the very least this is you giving them notice they might have an issue.

I'm just a little North of you and am in the process of building the same size building but as a pole barn. One thing I would consider on your building is 2' eaves to deal with the PNW rain and at least 8' interior height with 10' being preferred so you have room for shelving up high and out of...
