This was a fun great room chandelier addition to an old condo. 3 sections of 5' scaffold with limited clearance end to end made set up spicy. Plus only having one 12' long spongy 2 x 10" plank on either side of the chandelier to stand on made for a gripping situation. A good reason to charge large.

The 4 holes coming accross the ceiling are 4" hole saw cut's facilitating pulling romex between rafters. [tiesATTACH=CONFIG]375299[/ATTACH]

Luckily I didn't have to help break down the scaffold

The 4 holes coming across the ceiling are for fishing the wire between rafters. Luckily I didn't have to tear down the scaffold.

It still needs a finish, we haven't decided what to do with it yet. In the mean time since we moved, it's collecting dust and mail.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...96b3b5473e.jpg

You can pee in it? Cool.

I have a DR table with mechanical drop leaves made of that stuff. I keep mineral oil on it, otherwise raw. It does patina! In my dreams one of those panels above the FP has a hidden mechanism so it opens up to reveal yer TV

That table is fuckin sweet

Milled from the property, local, organic, free range straight grain cedar... Chofu woodstove is plumbed to it and almost fully lashed with the watertight test coming up this week... probably put some thompsons water seal on the outside of it once its stopped leaking.Attachment 376002

for some reason the wide angle on my ladies camera makes it(and me) super distorted

Ours stopped leaking after a few days with water in it up to the top. We had a snorkel stove.

We could use a few boards of green cedar for window sills on our pout house project. We're up on Union Hill, a few miles NW of Carnation.

I built three twin beds. One extra long loft style. The other two fit under it. I don't work with wood much, so I was stoked

Needed a new screen door. Apparently it’s almost impossible to find a decent wooden one to go with your house that was built in 1920. $80 of hemlock and some hardware later...

Pretty sharp door!

I'm not ashamed to admit I get tool envy from Snoq posts.

Why?

Another thing off the list. Poured some slabs last year, put in irrigation, and some walkways. This year - an arbor. Next, some more walkways and plantings.
