The House that TKB Built (Update 6-6) - Theekillerbee - 07-01-2007
Some of you may be wondering why I haven't been out and about lately. There is a good reason. I've been bulding a freekin' house! Doing pretty much all the work myself (call me stupid), so it is moving along at a fairly slow pace. I'll keep a little photo journal going here for those of you interested in the progress. We poured the footings last week, got the plumbing sub-rough done yesterday, and I'm ready to form up my foundation this coming week. I'll be using insulated concrete forms, which are kinda cool. No pics of those yet. I really won't be able to do any fishin' till this bad boy is done. Also attatched is a pic of what she should look like when it's all done.

Sweat equity is the only way to go. Better quality product when it is for yourself!

I could open all the pictures except the one of what it will look like when done. Wish I could. I just purchased a log home in Paradise.

Stinking weather is killing my *$$! Every Saturday...rain, rain, rain. Oh well. Here is a pic from a couple weeks ago. We've got logs on the main floor now, and should really start moving them this week. Hopefully it will dry out for a bit.

Here is an up-to-date pic. Been stacking logs like crazy. It's not a fast process, but they sure do look nice! Just wish it was September, and not November[
