Not much of a craftsman, but....

[smackaholic]

Time to go out there with my trusty R2 square bit equipped Hilte drill and try to make this place look almost like white folks live here.

not sure if this has been done yet, but....

EFUKKINLIMINATED

have we had any other self 'liminations yet?

dins, i'm fukkin' dissapointed in you. i noticed that i misspelled hilti as i was sitting out there burying deck screws with this mofo. you shoulda been on this like diego on a kiddygardener.

btw, hilti makes a kickass drill. picked it up from my buddy who has a whole job box full of dewalt stuff and wanted to keep it that way so he didn't have to worry about which battery to grab. this thing's 15.6 volts and it will fukking prison rape most 18 volt drills. and yes dins, i've heard the lecture on using DC for such a torque intensive job when there is perfectly good AC source just a few feet away in that rat's nest of power cords. Trouble is my trusty old milwaukee hammer drive works a little too well at the moment. It never shuts off. the trigger's a little sticky. blew it out with 'lectric cleaner and WD-40, btu, it still hangs and I'm way too cheap to buy a new one when i have an acceptable alternative sitting on the work bench.

I saw it yesterday but didn't care enough to log in. Then you go KYOA in this post. You mean 15.6 AMPS?

[Dinsdale]

You put it through a kiln with fresh stain on it? I'm sorry, who's full of shit?

Huh?

I figured your shit wood needed to dry before it was stained.

But you mean after staining?

Are you fucking retarded, or just never stained anything before?

On a warm day, oil-based stain (the only kind) is dry-to-touch very fucking quickly.


Every time I think you couldn't sound any less informed about this shit, you still manage to suprise me.

Is there enough room in that shed for a mower?

Looks like you need one.

If you back up a few frames, you'll see that the KC scott shed have 2 doors. When you have two door with nothing in the middle, you want something to hold that door in place. that is what it's for. you "lock yourself in" on that side, then you lock the other door, the normal way against the "locked from the inside" door.

being an ET2 in a former life, I know the difference between volts and amps. The bottom of the battery says 15.6V , 31.2Wh 2.0 Ah.

so no, in this case, i did not KMOA.

I will admit that 15.6 is an odd voltage. You see lots of 14.4 and 18, but, not much of this. But, seeing as they are made up of 1.2V batteries, the math does work out for 15.6.

Thanks for that, Professor Jackass.

Here's a REAL shed - complete with concrete base that almost killed me when I humped 14 wheelbarrows full of ready mix from my driveway 300 ft to the back corner of my yard to pour (and the additional 2 hours screeding the beast with my neighbor)



I'ts 12 x 10 and the objective was to get all the shit out of my garage so I didn't have to move a half dozen things to get to whatever I needed. (in the corner you can see the aerator and roller attachment for my tractor)

That shed's a'ight, but if you wanna see a real shed, you gotta see what my neighbor's putting up. It's 12x20, I think. I know the 12 is right. It has a 12x8 covered porch on one end. Couple windows, front door to the porch. Garage door on the back. It is fukking sweet. He's almost done framing. see if I can sneak some pics.

[smackaholic]

Thanks for that, Professor Jackass.

don't mention it, comrade.

[Dr_Phibes]

There you go, just chuck Rump's life-raft in that and you could survive for weeks till you're rescued. With the aid of a telescope, you could navigate to safety, or just read the morning paper on Scott's breakfast table to keep from going mad.

But...that's not the least bit funny.

Damn, you needed a ready mix truck with a huge boom, which would've costed about 5 times more. How long did that take? And the driver waited around? No extra cost?

300 ft? How the fuck big is your lot?

About the size of Lot G at Arrowhead, Wags, since you asked.

Hmmm. For some reason, I was picturing this shit:



Fourteen barrow-loads sounds about right.

You have got to be fucking KIDDING me.

That stuff is good for setting posts, not so much for a good sized slab.

Musta' been a really BIG barrow. I can just picture Scotty lugging that 300' 14 times. Break out the Ibuprofen.

[Atomic Punk]

Wags, the slabs you drive fork lifts on are most likely made of this:

The 50 lb Fence post variety might be what you are talking about:



At least I learned from professor smackaholic that Hilti has batteries that have 13, 1.2 v batteries to total 15.6 v. My old place of employment rented the corded Hilti Demo and Roto drills along with their powder actuated only. I was thinking he was ripping on the available DeWalt tools for being cordless and not being 15 AMPS that are preferable if you have electrical access.

You still have to find a place to lay out 28 deck boards that are 20 feet long, you flaming dumbfuck. Not to mention the rest of the pieces. Yes, I know how fast stain dries. I did the deck surface on Friday.

Scott, concrete looks good. One queston, where's the automatic pool cover? That's why I would never put in an odd shaped pool like that where I live. It looks nice and all, but the cover is such a time and money saver. Keeps the shit out in the winter. Allows me to heat the pool early and keep it heated without losing much heat thus costing more to reheat. Most of all, keeps the animals out of it. All I've ever found in the pool was a couple little tree frogs. If I lived in a more tropical environment like South Florida or So Cal where you really don't need a heater and you don't have near as much problem with leaves in the fall, I may consider doing an odd shaped pool.

Let's not forget the safety factor either. Just this weekend, I had company from Texas in. My 2 year old daughter wears these floaties. They're real similar to this:



Anyhow, I had just grilled the kids lunch and they were at the kiddie table eating. The pool was open. I had my back turned for one second and I hear a splash. My daughter who had been jumping in the pool right and left with her floaties on had jumped in with them off. She was at the bottom of the pool. In one motion I threw my blackberry out of my pocket and was in the pool bottom fishing her out. She coughed up a lot of water but was ok.

I keep that pool closed when not in use. I never leave the poolside when the kids are there unless there is another adult. I've found my kids playing out by the pool when doing shit around the house, but since we keep it closed, I rest easy knowing they can't get in it. And we always put the keys in a safe place when not in use.

Chuck Norris would have dove into the water with the blackberry still in his pocket and neither he nor his phone would have gotten wet in the process.

Nice job, though.

[indyfrisco]

Yeah, I got one of those old Blackberries like this. I also have big pockets.



I tossed it so I wouldn't join her and stay on the bottom.
