All done, without a hitch for the most part. All of my appendages are still attached and in working order. Bit of a butt clencher winding that spring, kind of like the first time I stuck multimeter probes in a live outlet. The door itself is still not in great shape, but I will eventually replace it with more carriage doors. Now I get to go start replacing some windows.

Should be pretty quick and straight forward.

Congrats on the torsion spring, now you can be complacent on the next one. Not!

Those things are always scrotum-shriveling for me.

Can’t tell if that’s vinyl siding in 2nd pic. If so, just to add to your tricks, there is a product called Jomax that really cleans it up. Mixed w/bleach per instructions. Use Clorox, not the bargain. Good for cleaning almost any surface. As I’ve stated before, I’ve used it to prep for exterior paint & it cleaned up so well, customers more than once held off on paint jobs.

Aluminum, not vinyl, but yeah it needs a cleaning.

Does that pump have a full sump shut off?

OK OK OK, I wired it into the thermostat power like the instructions said.
Put it on a terminal block so it looks neat. It's the only one I had.

Not a floor guy, or a a stair guy for that matter. 😳

Just installed about 1400sf of hardwood, plus 100 sf in a loft, and did these stairs.

Used to have carpet.

Now, they have oak. Finisher comes in next week. 👍

Better you than me. Flooring is way down there. Gets farther away every year LOL Stairs look much nicer.

Crane it up...

Just finished up, dry stack with boulders. Other pics sucked but it's about 120' long.

Is that wall designed to be out of plane and level, or is that an optical illusion from the pic?

Mice looking wall either way. I love that stone. 👍

Hard to tell, maybe it’s a curve?

 

[Leo G]

I thought it was a curve.

Nice puzzle.

 

[TPS BOCO]

Hard to tell, maybe it’s a curve?

1st pic both sections curve away if you look at it left to right.
2nd pic section curves one way then the other- camera angle doesn't help.

That's the problem with the other pics- optical illusion-ish but worse- it's all curved.

 

[Seven-Delta-FortyOne]

I see it now.

Might have just been the wine. 😊

Poured this addition yesterday.

Waiting on 9 floor trusses that didn't get delivered to finish framing the second story.

Kind of hard to see but thats an open air spice garden/courtyard in the middle of the house, and recess for a hot tub on the back corner of the foundation
