Good looking job.Like to see more,keep them coming:)

I would love to work on a jobsite like that.:cool: Surrounded by woods, clean air and peace and quiet.:) The concrete jungle has worn me down.:(

Looks good but I have a couple of questions:

This can't be a house or can it? 15' ceiling?

What the long steel rail for embedded in concrete?

Nice radiant floor heating..Kitek?

and where's the wire mesh?

[PLUMBER RICK]

wanna trade:D

nice location, forget about coming here for golf, i wanna go there for fishing;)

Ok guys, this was an old job, I was just showing off some pics.

Yes this is that garage I built and posted in here, some time back. When my computer crashed and I was searching for Windows XP disc, I found a disc w/more pics, so I went ahead and posted.

There was a lake right there too, just you cannot see it in the pics.

Beautiful country Minnesota is. Most houses I build are out there in the woods. But I'm done building for this year. Now its the smaller things, siding, roofs, doors and windows, remodels.

Crack, I didn't do the plumbing, so I really cannot say what brand, I leave that up to the experts.

Adam, I hate cement work, that is also done by the experts.

I build or stand around barking orders or scratching my ars.

Next build I'll try to remember to do a series of pictures during the phases of the build.

i miss stick building, it almost brings a tear to my eye, and then i wake up lol

What the long steel rail for embedded in concrete?

and where's the wire mesh?

Looks like a "post-tension" slab to me, real common around here with all the earth movement in the area, Clay:mad:

Oh yeah, a bobcat for standing walls is cheating:D

Do you guys build walls with bricks like in europe or with drywal like in california? i Know georgia uses drywall,in croatia we use bricks and cement on each floor,if the house burns down,only the windows go bye bye..

[garager]

Drywall, but of course around fire places stones or bricks, and nowadays it seems like the whole wall is done in it, where as in the past, just a few feet away from the fire place had stones or bricks then drywall look beyond the stones....

We need to teach you how to take out pics or text from a quote. Its actually pretty simple, then we could teach you multiple quotes and edit in each quotes.
