Afternoon guys!
Well another weekend gone and more off the list. I got all the lights up with the warm blast we had on Sun. Man was that nice!
Looks like we might get a little weather today/tonight.

Don't know if any of you guys are in need of a sheetrock lift Sheetrock Lift. That one is probably a Harbor Freight import. But, it ought to work fine. Easily the best tool purchase (non-woodworking related) that I've made in years.
I have 3-1/2 more sheets to hang on my ceiling. The next one needs cuts for a hatch. The last one will need to be ripped length-wise. Without the lift, I might still be on my first sheet.

It was snowing here and has now quit but all we got so far is about an inch.
Just got back from plowing the shack road (first try this year, had to do it before it got too high with this next storm coming). The warmer weather made the snow heavy, and the tires slide pretty easily. Got it done though. Chalk up another success with the mighty Bronco plow. Ford FTW!
Hey Cory! Yeah it was a perfect weekend for putting up lights! I am on a 3yr rotation for putting up lights so I should be good for another year before I have to put them up again! LOL

I am not sure if you can hear the fuel pump or not. I guess we will find out. I also realized that I have never changed the fuel filter. At least not that I can remember. Need to check that out also.

I didn't get much done tonight. However, I got the next sheet cut into three pieces which will take care of the hatch. I did it in very limited light, outside, under a lean-to, while it rained like crazy outside. Fun. I like running the possibility of electrocution from not properly drying the steel first. Anyway, I will try to get the two stationary pieces of that sheet up soon and hang the final two solid panels. The half sheet is gonna require more cutting. Most likely in less than ideal circumstances.

Good evening guys. How's it going tonight?
Sure wish it would either snow or warm up and rain, this mixed crap is for the birds!
Good to see you almost have the steel done Eric.
I'm by no means an expert, but blow in insulation is easy. I did the attached garage here a few years ago. Just a tip, installing the soffit chutes is a LOT easier WITHOUT the celing in the way. Ask me how I know

Hello everyone.
Eric, I am no expert either but it is pretty simple. Just make sure you get enough insulation! I had to have the insulation guys come back and add some. Also make sure your proper vents are tight and have no gaps on the sides, if so you might want to use a batt in there and blow the rest.
Hey Dave, only one more day! I bet you get a ton of calls after the sale is done! LOL
Yea Mike, I agree. Either snoe or rain just pick one. BTW did you ever get a TV. We had Desiree's mom get one from K-mart (were she works). Its a RCA 19" for $139.99. I fugure it should do the trick, and it looked better than the SANSUI ones they were selling at Menards.
