DIY Maybe. (New building)

[muddoc]

It has been a while since I updated, but taking pics has been on the back burner, as whenever I get a spare moment, I am working on trying to get this beast more finished (at least where I can start moving in). With that said, I have taken a bunch of pics of work, much of which got done over the holidays. My final electrical inspection is tomorrow, and hopefully the final building inspection will be on Friday. Then I can get to work on building the main snake room. The plan is to have that finished by the end of February and start moving snakes in by March. Still much work to do, but it is getting there. On to the pics.

First up is a shot looking in the Exterior door going into the office.


This is the door that goes into what will be the main room from the office. This is the only door that has the fancy trim on it so far, but the rest of the doors should get a facelift this weekend, as well as base boards. The base boards are painted, I just have to start cutting.


This is a shot looking back at the exterior door in the office. That is the mini split that controls the office and bath room. Then my window over where my desk will eventually go. The desk will hopefully start getting built in about 4 weeks. It will be a custom built desk, as I couldn't find anything nice that would fit in my space.


This is a shot of the bathroom 95% done. I still have to caulk the shower and put in the base boards, and it should be complete.


This is a shot of the hot water heater, garage door, and the door that leads into the office hallway. That wall is going to remain OSB, as this will be a storage area once the building is complete.


This is a shot from the middle of what will be the main snake room looking at the office area. The door on the right is the office door, and the one on the left is the Incubator. That is one of the 2 mini split A/Cs that will run the main snake room. On the left is one of the double sinks that will be in that room. The OSB on this wall will get replaced with sheetrock once the final inspection is done, hence the sheetrock behind the A/C. I didn't want to have to break the copper line sets once we started hanging sheetrock, so we will just float around the piece already there. Also, I hope to start painting the floor of this room this weekend.


The last pic is the A/C on the back wall. You can see the condenser drain line in this shot, as the wall isn't covered yet. Also running behind there is the vent line and drain for the sink that will be on the back wall.


That was a lot of pics, but I hope you enjoy them. Hopefully by the end of January I can have some pics of the painted floor and the remainder of the framing done. Maybe there will already be some insulation and electrical in there as well.

Thanks for looking, and let me know if anyone has any questions.
