Deconstruction and Construction...

Another day tearing down and putting up. The dumpster came today too, nice to clean stuff out of the yard.
Tearing into the kitchen walls. That lathe and plaster can make a mess.



















Here's the old porch turning into a bath. Had to jack up the one side a bit. Replaced a rotted end joist with a pressure treated one. Got alot of copper sweated in, til we ran out. Had to make a run to Menards for more and of course missed a visiting Lisa and Steve while there. They might as well make that tubing out of gold since the copper is getting so expensive.

You are starting to sound like a contractor. You are most certainly getting the lingo down and you look mighty fine in those carpenter jeans. You are not turning into a McLane, are ya? There are to many of them now.
