Roofer Sr IceLeaders Family Registered: 11/23/06 Posts: 2005 Loc: Princeton, MN	Here's a little project I have been working on. Added almost 1000 sq ft to our rambler and a second walkout.

Roofer Sr IceLeaders Family Registered: 11/23/06 Posts: 2005 Loc: Princeton, MN	Thanks Coach. It will be a living room and Rec. room. The basement will be storage for the time being. I just picked up half the load of knotty pine 6" T&G. Will be doing the walls and ceiling with that. _________________________ "In order to make the best of our opportunities, we must first have the opportunity" Keep America going, hire Americans.

Having a walk out is definitely worth the extra time and money for drop footings. _________________________ Frank DeLuca HotSpotOutdoors PR Administrator Nils Master Sharpening Service FM Sponsors I.C.E.

Ha, you would know more than I do about that. I will be busy working and working on this for awhile. Will have the inside finished in a few weeks, if I ever have some time to work on it. Did 12 square off and on today and will be working on the addition tonight. It's getting close to the ends of my wits, but it's better than sitting on the couch with a case of beer I guess. _________________________ "In order to make the best of our opportunities, we must first have the opportunity" Keep America going, hire Americans.

Roofer Sr IceLeaders Family Registered: 11/23/06 Posts: 2005 Loc: Princeton, MN	Thanks. I have about 3/4 of the pine done now, and will be picking up the rest this week. I will have some more pics soon. _________________________ "In order to make the best of our opportunities, we must first have the opportunity" Keep America going, hire Americans.

Farmboy1 HotSpotOutdoors Family Registered: 09/13/06 Posts: 312	Looks good! It will be great when it is all done. Do I see a brick ledge on the outside or am I seeing things?

Roofer Sr IceLeaders Family Registered: 11/23/06 Posts: 2005 Loc: Princeton, MN	The ledge is for a concrete slab in the future. The retaining wall will continue to the new addition. _________________________ "In order to make the best of our opportunities, we must first have the opportunity" Keep America going, hire Americans.

I was wondering since I did not see brick on the rest of the house. Way to think forward enough to plan for the future. The costs now is minimal, but would cost a lot in the future, and we will not have any heaving to deal with on the new slab.

Roofer Sr IceLeaders Family Registered: 11/23/06 Posts: 2005 Loc: Princeton, MN	A few updated pics. I am finished with the woodwork for the most part. I made all of the extension jambs and trim out of the knotty pine left over from the walls. Applying a few coats of polycrylic now. _________________________ "In order to make the best of our opportunities, we must first have the opportunity" Keep America going, hire Americans.
