Step 1: Purchase Wares - Complete.

Just got back from the lumber store with the following:

76 - 2x4x8's
11 - Treated 2x4x8's
16 - Single Gang Boxes
1 - Two Gang Box
1 - Three Gang Box
4 - Single Pole Switches
20 - 15 amp outlets (two 10 packs).
1 - Dimmer switch (for lights) -- already have the "dimmer" for the vent
New Estwing Hammer (been needing a new hammer for a while)
100' 14/2 wire
5lb box of 16d coated nails

My friend who is helping me will be bringing over his ramset.. I might see if he can do so tonight so I can get a jump.

Once framing is done I have an HVAC guy coming in to determine the work. I have already worked out a trade for him where I develop him a brand new website and he does parts and labor for free.

Works out for both of us.

Got a late start tonight, but got the first wall done. This will be the wall from the Exercise room into the unfinished Storage area. This wall includes a door and had to take into account going around the duct work.

08-13-2009, 11:11 PM

Here are some updated pics.

I've only been able to devote 2 hours last night and 2 hours tonight.. but it's been fairly productive.
