Will they sell fast? The crew I'm on just finished building 36 single family in the last 4 months all sold. We were doing 2 a week with metal walls out of the framing co. yard.
That job is over but one siding crew left doing PVC siding and me fixing floor squeaks:censored:

Loving my gecko gauge, up until this job I just made my own spacer gauge but the gg is definitely the way to go. I have 6+ square of lap and 4+ of B&B on this house.

The foundation is complete!
No more concrete work for another couple months!
Walls are 8" thick and 5'-2" tall (conditioned crawl space below the floor system.... That no one will access.... Ever).
Placement was on Tuesday, then we got back to our today and got the whole damn thing stripped and most of it stacked.
Tomorrow we'll finish cleaning up and then snap some lines for the slab prep before heading back home for the weekend.

These Mfs are slow but do great work. I told the foreman if it wasn't part of a house build that we won't finish until April I might have to kick him off the lead and finish it up. Lol

I'm surprised my pop hadn't built a fence around them yet lol

Worked about 32 hours between Thursday and Friday, about 21 of them on flooring.

Custom fry reglet on a buddy's house.
I was asked originally to install wood treads and risers....THEN cut in a skirt board to match the upper drywall line and treads/ risers and nosing...no way, not possible for a perfect fit. I spent a good deal of time cutting in a skirt to match sub treads and cleanly meet up to drywall detail. Then finished out the upper stair detail. Existing home, remodel, and poor subfloor that was really out of plane.

Around 1,000 sqft of 7" X 3/4" oak on plywood flooring. It was also glued (Bona) down being the substrate had a layer of particle board. Pain, but will come out nice.

He'll still need to scribe a bunch of flush base to the drywall to create the finished Fry reglet detail.....that will be fun..no quarter round at base to flooring.

I left last night around 1:45 AM.

Those panels looks like they’ve not only been laying around pre-corona but maybe even pre 1918 flu. Pretty rough looking.

Finished up this Pergola kit by TojaGrid. Took about 2 1/2 days. 2 days, 2 men and then me for 1/2 day putting up the final hardware for the sails and 232 screws with caps. Amazingly enough there are still 176 open holes that could have screws in them if they were supplied.

Sno gave me a hand for the 1st 2 days. Clients were impressed that we were able to do it with just the two of us.

I'll update our newest home build next week when we've finished the floor system.... But today I had to go back to our previous job to frame in a couple sets of stairs that we'd been asked to omit from our scope.
Guess the builder didn't want to build them themselves?
Easy enough. 5 hours in and out.
