These are awhile back. New roof top units for a 100 year old hotel we are remodeling into air bnb rentals. 5 nice rentals in the upstairs, new martini lounge downstairs. I'll get more pictures soon, drywall going up now.

A little framing.


Good to be off drywall for a minute. :blink:

 

outdoor gathering place?

at your ranch?

 

…

 

Yup, at the ranch.

It's actually a fuel station. :blink:

Tanks go on the right side, over the containment.

I decided to build block walls for tank stands. Way cheaper than custom fab metal, and I didn't want build PT frames.

So block it was.

Containment will hold 125% of total tank volume.

Covered drive-in area. [emoji106]

Old logger buddy of mine sold me a few tanks for little more than a song.

We'll have Super and Red Diesel in there for starters. [emoji106]


Still gotta build one for the outdoor kitchen.

About to do a kitchen too, but out of steel. Not as nice as cedar but good enough for Spicewood lol

Nice fueling station. Must have a hell of an operation to need that :thumbsup:

A simple complex project. After the jigs get made it's simple. A company that sells humidor electronics wanted some bases to put their equipment on. Was told to make 24 of them in cherry.

Jig for the hanging holes.

Holes routed in

Jig for the holes for equipment mounting

Larger holes are for the wires that go from the electronics to the sensor

And the slot for the wire to travel in that gets put in on the router table with stop blocks.

They'll get a clear coat.

 

23 of them finished, clearcoat.

 

Ended up wrapping the roof with underlayment even though we used zip. First time zipping the roof, we')) go back to cdx probably. I can't get past the idea of a roof penetration being protected by tape alone

Nice view from the master.

Boat dock is coming along slow but very well done. Brick chit house

We tore off some siding from the first house we used Zip on back in 2012. Just used it on the walls, but we ice guarded the whole wall before putting the siding back on. GC says he will never use the stuff again. So glad we never used it on a roof.

 

Nice pad, John. :thumbsup:

That a concrete floor in the master?

 

It is a monolithic Foundation, it is about 11' out of the ground right there. We will put down Ditra and then tile

 

Alright, Tyvek over Zip sheething it is! Lol. [emoji848]

No way I’d want to depend on stick & peel flashing. I use spray adhesive when I flash windows and the stuff still peels off, sometimes within a few days.

 

Almost all zip system failures are due to improper installation.

I wasn't talking about a failure of their product, just the fact that you are relying on tape for some critical areas that are sure to fail in a short time.

 

Finished this one up the other day , now on to the next one. Forgot tp upload picture.:whistling

 

Few of the jobs we completed this week. Was hot and humid all week. Sporting a nice tan too[emoji106]

Think my brother in-law is coming back in the next week or two. Would love to hire a salesman so I could just install all day everyday.

Screwed around too long at the shop. Just painted the shop and field office in the back, will do rock and board and batten when we figure out how to turn the front room of the shop into a selections room.

Got the storage tank for the well etc... in the new well room, now have to move well equipment then tear down that yellow shed. Tesring down the metal shed, doubling size and rebuilding with board and batten siding, its to keep paint and chemicals in.

Going to pour sidewalks, irrigate a small section and plant grass and make a small parking area. Later will pour the whole front in concrete

That Gable on the front of the shop is begging for a big sign. Need to look into that

Located spot for outdoor kitchen and started priming steel

It will be basically just like this but painted. Pit with pipe going through the roof on the end where the hood is, outdoor kitchen where the front passenger door is, sink to the right of that. Otherside the Blackstone griddle and wood storage

The wine barrels with granite tops will be relocated to this structure

Put the bags on and worked with the boys today [emoji16]

I pulled and replaced 22 sheets, cleared the plugged up cellulose from the eaves and put the baffles where they were supposed to be. Some jack wagon put half of them in and blew insulation over the rest of them

Just finished up that 7" polystyrene crown I was not looking forward to.

Installed 2 layers of 2x4, ripped to the spring angle...cut it on a 12" compound saw on the flat as the motor got in the way on some of the cuts. Used construction adhesive at the miters. Taped top and bottom, filled the nail holes, painted and caulked.

It's not perfect but the customer thinks it is.

Came out really nice Robie. Size of the crown is appropriate for the height of the ceilings.

 

Just hung the door on this yesterday.
Good customer (double leg amputee) moved into a home that is handicapped accessible.
He doesn't have a screened in porch so wanted his garage screened in so he can sit out without the bugs bugging him.. It won't fit his handicapped van.
Framed out with pressure treated, screened it and built the door from 8/4 cedar I had...painted and hung. He's happy.

Disclaimer: My legal team contacted his legal team and after deliberations, decided "who gives a hoot" (their words, not mine) if anyone who wants to see this screened in garage in a little nondescript house in a nondescript town...so be it.:jester::jester:

Looks like a $10,000 job.

 

We had a project visitor last week.

One of the Eagles, paid us a visit and perched on our first aid shack about a year and a half ago, just as we were starting excavation.
(He was absolutely huge)

A return visit Friday and send off (and pretty cool that he posed on that part of the building) since we are almost done.

 

That needs to be posted to "Views while working". :thumbsup:

 

Getting close to finishing this one up... finally... holy schitzkees... Under contract before staging and photos... pretty happy with most of it...

 

Damn, nice pad

You do specs I remember- is this on spec?

 

Nice job!
