And some actually work started:

I see them often, but I prefer the gray ones. That one was already in there, we just moved it.

I don't know what colour they are south of the border, though!

I helped a friend in washington do some work on a cottage, but I forget what colour they were. Maybe black...

All I can remember was how crappy the 14/2 wire was, the insulation would even wrinkle up if you pulled too hard, and it was way to easy to scratch/cut it if you snagged it...

Yea, I know the feeling regarding the cold weather and snow and ice. It's getting ridiculous around here.

I've found the best to install that lighting is to shoot it to the beam. Is that what you did?

122 runs of cat6, RG6, 14.4 speaker, cat5e, and minicoax. All for a cottage just off of Georgian Bay Ontario.

Marked and pulled over 2 days in -20C temperatures. Wire was stiff as hell, so it doesn't look perfect yet since we couldn't coil it very well.

Framing wasn't complete, so we still have to go back and finish up some other things. Then back in April to spend a week doing the terminations and equipment install.

Tore a ligament in my hand too.

first floor walls

I posted the beefy floor system a few weeks back, well here are the walls. We are waiting on steel ridge and valleys Etc. for the roof. The roof will be fun, all TJI and steel. By now it is all sheathed and the circltop windows are all done too. I'll post more once we get more done.The last pic is where an indoor pool will be, and a glass gable wall on the end.
