A couple more

Went back to the house I started last week and I installed another 3 windows.
For one of them I had to cut the wall.
Here they are

Saw this little garter snake today. Probably only 2-3’ long. Cute little guy, lol.

I used to go and catch those all the time when I was a kid. Got bit a few times too!

What did you do with them?
Just catch and release?

My Dewalt 20-volt 7 1/4″ circular saw was my TOTD today.
It cut a lot of window frames and plywood. Paired with a 5AH battery it doesn’t stop.

Installed 8 windows but I was too tired to take pictures.
Maybe Monday when I have to cut a wall for a bigger window.

Nice , almost looks like the triplex in pierrefonds I lived in for 18 months.
Nice problem solving 👍

It was in St. Therese and it was higher than the 24′ ladder that we have so I use the truck as a riser.

Got the slab poured today (7.5×7.5×5”) and about 80 tapcons in to hold the decking on top of the old slab.

Nasty work concrete.

Not worried about snow melt water infiltration at that basement window? Or does it not snow there?

That looks like a patio door to me.
Or, we are not talking about the same picture? First pic?

Our welding shop have it permanently ,
It’s a insurance related issue when it comes to using torches and or a grinder making sparks.

Why do you have to ask for it every day if you need it every day?
Why not a monthly request?

I like that Mag stuff, but man it’s pricey. Where are you going to be using it?

I’ll buy his brother and a feather board to use it on the band saw.
Plus other odd usages.
