Dug up our holding tank and replaced the lift pump last month.
Good times.



Found this about building a mud hut over a period of several months. Pretty impressive.

That's so nice edge, great work! I wish I had space for something like that (so does my wife).

Did you pipe any air? There's a simple coupler fitting that transitions 1/2" irrigation pvc to 1/4" pneumatic fittings. It's nice to have a slinky hose at each station.

Edge,

Nice shop!

I'll never get even close to that organization.

We live on a half acre, just north of the downtown Seattle area (about 20 minutes).

Our son and his wife expressed an interest in living in our little 1928 rental cottage on the back part of our lot, so after the previous tenant (who virtually trashed the place) moved out, we set to work to get it ready.

Here's the layout from the top of our house - garage on the left (in which you'd find our climbing wall/cave), and the rental house in back.


This is me, dressed for success (wearing a T from an episode of Extreme Makeover my son and I were on)...


The porch was totally open on this house, as you can see in the original pic. So, I began closing it in to create a mudroom / barrier from direct outside cold air into the living room...


Took up the old floors (hello, asbestos), and had the original, old-growth fir floors (which we didn't know were there) refinished...





repainted and carpeted living room...

Before...



My son, Joe, helping with the siding on the newly closed in porch...


T&G pine on the inside of the newly closed in porch...


And aside from some caulking and minor trim work, here're the new porch and front steps...


I have to say that it's pretty awesome having our son and his wife living so near us. They are both fantastic human beings...and they have a little one (girl) on the way. Life is gonna change around here!!!!

^^^ It was genuinely sucky work... (just the scraping. The rest was a blast).

Just finished a knife-holder, made from re-purposed fencing and bamboo flooring scraps:


This is what 2400 bamboo skewers looks like (with cut-down 4"X4" scrap):


Finished product with all 10 knives and sharpener:

Just started the stairs this weekend. I've ripped out the carpet. I found a newspaper clipping underneath that is from 1990. The house was built in 1901.


Aha! MrE, so that's what the skewers were for. Looks nice and will keep the knife edges nice and sharp for you to cut yourself with ;)

Must be new. The doorknob isn't even installed yet ;-)

As I guy who had a shop once, I'd get that fixed.
