Angry

my quick project


well here is one reason why the 120 gallonis not down yet..
rather small water leak lead to finding a few small leaks. once i found most and fixed them i found one more ina different room . and this is what i have been doing so far. not only is half the walls plaster board, but they screwed 1/2 drywaqll over it. and glued areas that were not staying togeather.. oh the spray foam stuff is not me at all..something that woudl take me a few hours to do is now on week 5... dont even ask about the ceiling...

yeah, but man the more i open things up the more i see wrong....they actually foamed two joists togeather ...
but once it is done, it will be much better. i will make a small desk with inset shelves whereyou see that PVC drain pipe. if i could i woudl just gut the whole room and start it over .. i will be adding a few more sockets on the wall too. there is only two in the whole room

heheh if ya did i would have been at the cracker barrel!
well just finished part of the wiring for the side wall, need to run a line to the box downstairs and make a junction downsairs to run the other outlets. when i am donei hope to have 3 oulets done and on there own( 1) breaker.
also squared up the side outside wall and need to cut rock to fit it. it is a nice size 2,7 3/4 by 7.5 foot so that will be a easy cut at least.
also found out the fish tanks are wired to a junction box that had part of that room and hall and bathroom on it!!!!

gota find that next..hehe and jeff's on vacation.hmmmmmmm
