The rafters being built wrong set me back 3 weeks. In the mean time, I started doing some framing inside. Then came back and finished the roof. Then went back and finished framing. Then electrical. After electrical and finishing up the plumbing, I had my cousins to lay the fireplace. If any of you guys on here need masonry work done around NE bama, these boys are the best of the best. Miller and Son Masonry is their business. Andrew won the National Skills Brick Laying competition in high school. He's won several of the Brick layer 500 craftsmen awards since then. Had a little down time after the fireplace was finished. I had ordered some eastern white pine for the living room walls. I had to wait 8 weeks for delivery. Also, had to wait on the sheet rock man, as he was behind. Once I got the pine delivered, I went to experimenting with finishes. I wanted a real light weathered grey look, but never could achieve it. I ended up using tea and apple cider vinegar/steel wool to stain it with. I boiled about 5 gallons of tea and rolled it on the boards with a paint roller. I let it dry in the sun and then rubbed the vinegar/wool mixture on. You can see in the pic the boards on the ground have been rolled with tea. The boards on the saw ponys have been rubbed with the mixture. Its an immediate change in color. Once I had all that put up, I moved onto the ceiling. I couldn't find any corrugated metal that was already rusted up when I needed it so I made my own. I bought new sheets from home depot and rusted them with muratic acid and peroxide. Then shot them to the rafters inside. Once that was finished, I moved onto the worst part of the entire build, tile showers. They are nice now that their done, but these things are a nightmare and I hope never to do one again.

Very cool. Dad picked up the bush hog up there and was telling me about your place.

On the distance I like to walk to my stands: “The first 100 yards is also the last 100 yards.”

My luck has been so bad lately, it could be raining pussies and I'd catch one with a dick broke off in it.

Good looking stuff right there. Andrew was at the tech school when I was going through. He's definitely good at brick work.
The fool tells me his reasons; the wise man persuades me with my own.

I then started on my porch. I really like the porch. Some of the small projects I've done to it. I found an old piece of driftwood while fishing one day and I brought it home with it in mind to do this with. I routed a channel out of the back and wired in all the lights together. I reclaimed a kitchen table from some old tongue and groove flooring. I've still got a lot of small projects to do that will have to wait til deer season is over. I only got to go 5 times last year, so I'm blood thirsty. Here's a few pics of the finished home now. I'm also going to do a brick wainscott down the front after season. Headboard I made. If yall have any questions on how I done something, holler at me. It was a fun project and one I hope to never do again. If your considering something like this, my advice is go a little bigger. I wish I had. I wanted my garage to be big enough to leave my wood working stuff out and be able to park boat and atv in their. That aint happening now.

If it hadn't been for him, I'd probably still be working on mine. We actually just finished his new house up. He started about a month before I was finished.
