So looks like sweating copper is your only choice with no electric ....at least you get to play with chemicals and fire legally
Lol at that time I just finished framing and setting the tub. Didn't drill the studs or floor to run my copper. Could of used my cordless but if the battery died I'd be fucked. Also I normally drill with my right angle drill. Does a better job and less strain on my cordless

Started this job real early today because it's an empty house. Rough in 2 bathrooms but I also had to frame em out. I was jammin. Framed out both bathrooms and set both the tubs. As soon as I go to do the drains and run copper and all that good shit.. wind took down a tree and the tree took down the electric line. Not feeling too Amish today so my day is fucked.. lol

As soon as I hit send on this message the power company came and blocked me in. Got the power back on. And I ended up working.. dang power people. I was ready to go out for lunch and take a nap after
A lot of that going around. They climbed a pole across the street and KO'd my power while I was stirring paint earlier.
Dark for 45 minutes again.

I'm buying a generator. Lose power 4 - 5 times a year here. I'm on the same line as the stop lights over the hill. Every time some drunk bangs into a pole along the hollow with an ATV, I'm fucked.

You'd think those ATV's would be totaled by now.

you should just build a ramp in front of the pole. so they jump over it. @Indagrow can tell you whats the best way to go about it

Finally done with half the garage painting. 2/3 of a gallon of SW Extreme Bond primer and 2 gallons (4 coats) of exterior grade super duper latex @ $80 a gallon. $57 for primer. Plus 2 rollers. That's approx. $200. for half of the interior.

Paint prices have gone through the motherfucking roof. I project another $250 to finish.

I could have hired somebody to paint it cheaper than $450.

But it wouldn't have the tangerinegreen stamp of approval.

I could just see it now.

"You're done? You can't be serious. You're 3 coats light. WTF is wrong with you?"

You can see why I do my own work. I'd probably get hurt if I let someone else touch my shit.

I'm afraid of heights so I had to hire a guy to do my barn roof. I had to walk away after watching him work awhile, the way he was doing/not doing shit drove me crazy. Glad it was cheap because the work he did is laughable.
