when kept simple can be super competitive with traditional R22 walls (which is the new code requirement.)
Brandon--is that NH state code?

Bamboo, as far as I know NH has no statewide code, it's pretty loose here. But the newest NBC mandates R22 walls. We follow that as a minimum.

Jefe, is that what you're building?
My carpentry skills pale in comparison to an undertaking of that sort. Chapeau!

I'm building a new steel gate for the Garden we planted in the back half of our driveway. Still a long way to go. I am going to start the decorative leaves and such this week.

Totally self congratulatory, but I kicked some ass at work today. I worked the tie-ins from the existing structure to the new one solo. I made soffit from the old building flow into the new one seamlessly, despite many obstacles. I tied a timberframe into a wall, and built the largest return on a gable known to man. Trimmed it as well.
I may not be the best builder, but this is one of those feel good days where you start to think that you're excellent. I'm sure I'll encounter something tomorrow that puts me in my place.
The Tye, I wish I knew how to weld, strong work!

It's fairly cheap to learn. Pick up a wire-feed frome Home Depot or Harbor Freight and a roll of flux-core wire. Get some free scrap metal from a supplier... spend an hour googling tutorial vids then go outside and weld some crap together!
Once you own a cheap wire feed welder you will find that it will help you on a ton of projects. The little ones don't even take special power supply.

Tye, I'm going to have to do that. My brother and his friend rent space from me to build super fast Audis, and they have a small wire feed welder.
We poured some mud today, it was pretty interesting. No pump truck, so the barrel truck drove right up and put the chute through the window and door.
