It's finally time to install the water heater and build a closet for the washer and dryer.

We're getting several things finished up. That includes shutoff valves in the kitchen and bathroom, setup for the kitchen sink so it's ready to install, and then I build a couple shelves for each side of the oven range. We're slowly getting there.

In this video, we are using an acrylic pour to cover the countertops that we made out of flooring that's about 100 years old or close to it. It's ideal that we have the temperatures a little warmer but we probably rushed it and did it with a temperature of about 65°. Ideally we would have been in the 70° or even 80° range which would help it set up faster and better.

In this video, we put up a 32 foot long span of gutters. We're amateurs so it took a while. We could easily do it in half the time now.

We're getting down to some smaller finishing projects. It won't be too long and we'll finish up the apartment. Then I'll start working outside on the property again prepping for the house build!

Time to trim out the shower and then work on the countertops. We cut the hole for the kitchen sink also.

In this video we use a biscuit jointer to glue all of the 1x4 pine boards together to make the shelves for the cabinets.

We use sheet metal left overs from the shop build for the shower walls. And then we get started building kitchen cabinets and shelves.

My in-laws had 6 trees they wanted down at their house. 3 Mamosa trees and two scraggly trees and a nectarine that just wasn't doing well. We did all 6 in about 3 hours.

Primer, then paint for the apartment.

This is the 3rd and final day working on the well house. Finished it up except for a couple little things.

Bring on the second day of our well house project. It's a simple pole barn style building built to match my shop.

In this video we dig the ditches for the shop water line and the house electric. Then we get it put in the ditch and covered up. I rented a mini excavator to dig and my skid steer to cover it up.

We all know there are only two genders. Now's the time to find out. Will we get the experience of raising one of each gender?

We're making progress and starting to run the water line and plumbing into the shop. We also put an exhaust fan into help circulate the air in the shop and finish doing some of the OSB sheathing on the walls and in the bathroom. I also do the insulation along the dividing wall of the apartment / garage.

We start building the dividing wall to separate the shop from the apartment and also put in 2 bedrooms.

Just like the title says, we continue putting up the wall insulation and OSB panels. Then we shift gears a little and frame up the bathroom

We finally finished the ceiling and now we're on to insulation and wall osb!

We're two osb sheets shy of finishing up the ceiling for the time being. We'll have to do the last truss span after we move out of the shop and into the house.

Took a day to get some tree work done at my brother's house.
