Gray Ghost Posted February 21, 2012 #4 Posted February 21, 2012 Wish we could be there. But with my carpentry skills, that is probably a good thing.
gunboat Posted February 21, 2012 Author #5 Posted February 21, 2012 thanks cliff you could always stop in to say hi, haven't seen you in a few years. reguards don c.
gunboat Posted February 21, 2012 Author #6 Posted February 21, 2012 hi folks i know everyone has things they need to do. that everyone can't come both days or can't come saturday but can come sunday, or may not be able to come at all. what ever you can do this weekend or the next will be very welcome. it's starting to get down to crunch time for brad & lonna. i forgot to say if anyone need a place to bed down friday or saturday nights i have two spare rooms. one with a full bed and the other with a air mattress. reguards don c.
gunboat Posted February 21, 2012 Author #7 Posted February 21, 2012 hi folks from what i've seen at brad's & lonna new place is to finish up on the float & taping of the sheet rock. stat texturing what walls need doing. need to cut and secure cement board down in the dinning room & utility room. then the tile can start being layed down. install the kichen cabinets after the walls are done. we will have a full day saturday, and hopefully have most if not everthing done on sunday. everyone will have a better idea after we start. bring your own hand tools, electric / cordless drills with bits, electric extension cords or your drills. now if some of ya don't have any tools don't worry we'll find something for you to fill those empty hands with. ( my big hammer THOR is waiting to get started ) reguards don c.
