NEW STUFF!!!
NEW windows - you knew that
NEW doors - you knew that too
NEW drain pipes
NEW water pipes
NEW wires
AND
New holes!!!
YUP New holes
LOTS OF NEW HOLES
That is the living room?
Redneck beat holes
all over the house.
See the new wires in the wall?
The old wires had a lot of illegal splices - very dangerous
It has taken a lot longer and a whole lot more work than just running a couple extra circuits to the kitchen like we thought.
This will be the inside
of the
down stairs
bathroom.
Redneck has put
in drain pipes,
water pipes
and wiring!!!
The other
side of the
wall will
be the kitchen.
The new drain pipes
are a lot better
looking than the
ugly old pipes.
If you scroll
back a ways
you can see
them if you
really want to.
Pex was used for
the new water pipes
Pex is cheaper than
copper and less likely
to get stolen.
Really.
Can you guess which pipes carry hot and cold water?
This is the work still in progress.
WIRING.....
Redneck has been running
wires to the attic,
the second floor,
the first floor,
the laundry room
and the outside lights
for weeks now.
Maybe months or decades...
It is much harder to rewire an old house
than to wire a new one. Messier too.
This is the wall in the bedroom
A lot has changed here, too -
Lots of drain pipe, water pipe and wires but if you look inside
the bathroom the only
difference is
MORE HOLES.
Crazy isn't it.
As soon as the wiring gets done we will need to put in some more insulation - the house has some but some has settled and some places never got any.
Also some time soon we will need to rent a dumpster to get rid of the trash. Believe me there is trash. I think that first picture is old linoleum from the kitchen floor. Then there is still trash here and there lots of it. Oh and I haven't looked in the garage in a while. Trash in there too.
Maybe I should sell pictures of trash for modern art. EEWW.
Maybe Redneck will post something wordy in a while.
