Garage Continues

Done with the front framing. Need to get the code inspector out here before I put siding on it just in case I've missed some code requirements. Hopefully he'll have time this week so that I can do the siding and trim next weekend, and schedule to have the garage door installed.

Doesn't look like much for 2 days of work, but I took my time and had to make a lot of runs for tools and parts. Also I reused a lot of the 2x4's that I took out of the basement, so pulling the screws out of those so I could use them added some time.
The back wall just has some interior paneling temporarily tacked up to prevent rain from blowing through, it hasn't been framed yet.

Craigslist Find

I'm still using a lot of old Ikea Expedit stuff for storage. It works, and is flexible, but not fancy. Been on the lookout for something better. Ran across this on CL for only $300, and got them to deliver. Right now it's just staged in the open area of the basement. I should be able to finish the framing and drywall in the old theater, and I'll move these in there.

Basement Bathroom Progress

Just for reference, here is the original, claustrophobic, non-code-compliant basement bathroom. And here is progress on the much larger bathroom, even though to overall footprint is the same size. The shower has been expanded to fill the entire width, and the ceiling raised in the shower area. The original was a generic shower stall, and was very dark and cramped. This will be much brighter and while the dimensions are small, won't feel nearly as cramped.

Kitchen Progress

Backsplash tile almost done, just need to install the outlets and faceplates.
