Finished this one up before the GC had the space ready. Small kitchen going into a pool house. A vanity for the small bathroom and a linen closet for the towels to dry off after swimming. That's the one think I haven't assembled yet.

Don't have any pics, but I can build a dance floor around a chimney you wouldn't believe. Haven't killed myself yet!

I know, I know... No pics, didn't happen...
I hear ya. I did over 300 houses for my younger brother. Some of the contraptions we did on the roof. Be nice to have pics of all that stuff.
 
Pretty decent.....I want to see your setups around chimneys on steep roofs now.
Funny cause I have a decent roof scaffold set up but I haven’t taken any pictures of the actual chimney jack scaffolding!

I only have before and after pictures of the chimneys!

matched up this profile for mirror frame I’m making for the bathroom I’m doing. I don’t know why they didn’t order a mirror to match when ordering the cabinets. I only used two router bits and sanding.
now to try to match the finish. I mixed some trans tint black dye and a little India ink with denatured alcohol. It’s close but not perfect. That’s tomorrow’s job to spray the dye.

Matching is always fun. Most shops never really use dyes like that.
 
I hate matching. Sometimes I want to tell people if you want everything to match I’ll gladly paint it for you. My finish will be a little on the black side but if I can help myself from not going to dark I think it will be ok. The cabinet company wanted 130 for a quart of there spray stain plus shipping. The guy didn’t want to pay it so he will have to live with it.
 
Elevated press box demo right on the 50yd line
No access with anything as big as a 320 exc
Demo'd it with a 19k Takeuchi mini, and a skidsteer to haul the debris 300 lf away to the dumpster
Pretty easy demo until I started on the footings.
They decided to save the FPL meter and feed, so I charged them an extra $1k to soft dig around it prior to removing footings (thank God for Florida sugar sand)
Damn things for 5'x5'x36" thick.
Could get them out of the ground with the mini alone, so had the track machine help me. 4 biguns!

Now, just gotta put the ho-ram on the skid-steer, and bust them up, then load and haul.

Looks nice. Much more permanent than the original plan.
 
Because of the Berber carpet I chose to lay down three-quarter inch plywood and shoot it in with 2 inch pins, luckily we were able to catch a double floor Joust so just a few screws into the ceiling is all it took, once I do the taping it’s definitely permanent.

i’m just wondering what kind of surprises once I go into the bathroom, what will I need for a threshold?
 
I helped Leo do a little bar and this is for the same client, in the basement, add another door to the bathroom, and build a wall for a …. Office space! View attachment 536422

What's the long wooden L shaped 1x4 thing....a homemade square?
Little bit of rafter framing to tie in part of this huge addition/rebuild. A lot math was done this morning. Worked out perfectly! View attachment 536437

Nice rips. Bet that took a while.

Figure the hypotenuse of the triangle made by the intersection of the ex roof and new rafters using the roof slope and run, then snap a line and cut? Trying to reverse engineer your math... Looks super clean.
