[CLOSED BUSINESS]

[caveat]

This house of ours is over 60 years old and is showing it's age more every year. I had to knock out part of a bathroom lower wall by the sink to get at the water trap for the bathtub as it was plugged and a snake kept going down the wrong pipes. The cast iron is all corroded but I was able to clear up the clog without damaging it more. I dread when that pipe has to be replaced in the concrete slab house.

The clog was probably about 12 feet down the drain pipe, no idea why so far down but the tub is now draining like it never has since we moved in. Yipee!

Now I just have to build a new sink cabinet and some kind of cover over the wall access so I can get back in there if I need to some day.

arrr, fun fun fun...

This was initially just a leak under the tub drain that pooled under the floor and eventually rotted enough that the fixtures started sinking.

I pulled a little up thinking I could just patch it but it was spread all under the cast iron tub too.

Once I got everything out I noticed mold all over the plaster too. It's no longer a weekend project. Mine's a hundred years old so nothing is ever simple. Or square.

Decided to redo wiring and plumbing since it was already gutted.

Holy #%$& caveat, makes my job look easy in comparison.... good luck with it and take it slow if possible!

Holy #%$& caveat,

I couldn't have said it any better Capt!!

Good Luck to both of you. Nothing stresses me out more than owning a home.

Always something to do and then the wonderful surprises just when you think you'e got everything under control!

Going a little too slow unfortunately. Ended up finally calling in some professional help because I can't seem to get the floor level and/or flat while still meeting up with the hallway floor.

Once the floor is back in, it should go much faster.

I'm not 100%, but that looks like I75, and I used to work in Saginaw...

Edit:
Thats actually Texas. Strange how Saginaw MI is on M81 and its also on an 81 highway in Saginaw TX. Mind blown...

Have a great weekend all, arrr

 

[LJFinFLA]

Ahoy Crew!

Been a couple of dreary rainy days here in SW FL. Sucks, but then again has been in the low 80's to high 70's. A needed break from the hot and humid 90's these past months. Hope all is well with everyone.
Capt' I like the new web page!

Aye, the weather has not been good for me, but I've been working today and just crossing my fingers that I don't lose power while running a CNC profile, arrrggg...

Thanks, but I wasn't too sure about the new layout myself... but it was time for a change. And if the website has any more problems I might be changing my providers too!

Back to work.... arrr

Yea it's about time!!! I almost shut the game off after the fumble and missed field goal attempt!! They finally put it together but they have a rough road ahead of them before their bye week. We'll see if it was just a fluke Thursday night.

Gahhh! I was planning to watch it in the morning. Probably do better to watch Philly @ Washington to see how they look since they will be playing both - and Jerry's crew - before the bye.

Watching more college ball than usual this season. Enjoyed the OU @ WV game.

Oooops. Sorry if I spoiled the game for you. I like College ball as well. Watched Florida and Bama. Looks like Saben is going to win another Title with this team!
