Workshop Removed

Needed to get the old workshop cleaned out with the eventual plan to finish the space. This will bring the total square footage of the house to about 3,000. Here is what it looked like before:

And now

I've set it up temporarily as an audio room, but this is mainly just to have a place to put the speakers and other stuff to get them out of the way. Plan is to leave it as is while I finish the upstairs.

This is also an exercise to force me to use the garage as the shop, rather than the basement. Goal is to see how workable that is. This also gets all of the "dirty" stuff out of the house and into the garage where it belongs.

Ugly Float and Tape

Getting started on the float and tape job on the upstairs half bath. Pretty ugly so far. This is just the first coat, which is really intended to just get the tape down. Looks ugly, but it's actually not bad. Won't know for sure how it will look till the last coat. Plan is to do a texture-free level 5 finish. Not sure if I'll be able to pull it off or not, worst case if it doesn't pan out I can just throw some texture up.

Back Wall Done

Finally 100% done with the back wall of the house. Windows installed, trim done, and paint. The windows will probably get pretty messy until I have time to install the edging and river rock along the edge, but that will come later.

Bathroom Waterproofing

Waterproofing the shower. 1 primer coat, 5 coats on the walls, 7 on the pan. Tested and approved by the inspector. Next is upper pan and then tile.
