Holbrook Man-cave

Wednesday:
Can I get Andreas Holbrooks phone number so I can coordinate with him over today and tomorrow?

Thursday:
Toilet temp installed.
Tank lid is always the last thing I take out of the box and put on, so of course its cracked right out of the box after I've already installed everything else. Called the pro desk at the Bellevue Depot and we'll get it replaced tomorrow morning. 











Wound up needing to biscuit join & glue four chunks of cedar together the face the 18 foot lighted beam wrap. This is gonna take longer than I thought, but will still be complete by the end of today.



Need four more hours to complete lighted beam wrap this morning.  Limited access due to the garbage pile as tall as me directly under the beam & outlets.







Subfloor complete.



I HATE YOU ALL FOR MAKING ME TOUCH THIS.

Redheads provided won't work. By the time I countersink them enough, I'm all the way through the ironply.

Just glue and weights.



Door removed & installed. Gonna need 1 more bucket of floor adhesive- pic of label posted below. Need 3 more sheets of ironply. Need to know if this flooring continues into the bathroom.

First attempt at faux finish match for stone facade completed. Request 1 bag of standard thinset for fireplace floor, 1 small batch of pewter grout (don't need a full bag) for touch-up, 4 tubes of gray sanded caulk for brick edges & 5 1" X 12" X 10' planks to build soffit over gas pipe.

In-process pic used as base pic for soffit proposal- don't panic, wall is clean this morning.

Grout started & 1 outlet deleted.





Monday: Just throwing more brick up.




Friday: Just confirming that my job is back on track this morning. Thanks for the corner stock. 32 hrs. this week. $13.77 matl. reimbursement due from primer purchase for deck stairs.

 Kitchen/bar area re-piled (not removed)



Wed.: We've run out of outside corners for the brick. Need more & need an answer from Temo or you on the outside corners for the stacked rock.

 Need to know if the little wing wall coming out from the rear wall gets the brick veneer is well.




Please see if you can find out from Temo whether he broke up the blunt end field slabs to create natural looking ends for the corners or if we had corner slabs to work with from the beginning.







Faux stone fireplace facade 70" wide- need 72" minimum mantle to continue up the wall.  Need termination instructions to restart brick facade.



1/3/14:
Deck complete- railing was delayed due to painting fascia/risers in the rain- utilizing the heat gun to skin the paint before the railing goes on.  Used cheap exterior primer-$13.77.  32 hrs this week.
