Electrons :)

Wow, I surprised even my self today by posting for a second day in a row. Today I started to run the electric lines, there will be 13 or 14 of them. I have tried to put everything on a separate automatic switch, appliances, water heater, lights for every room separated,, power outlets too. I even run a line for the yard, and for the stairs outside, just planing ahead ( I have future plans for this places that involves electrons in motion). The gauge of wires correspond correctly to the requirements of the appliances, switches, and all this important details, so I am not expecting any surprises in terms of safety. And now without further a do, here are some pictures ... Click on the picture underneath to access the gallery.

My helpers for today, working on my roof ;) 

VIDEOS

I have decided to simply upload the videos unedited for now, just as they are, raw and bloody, dirty and dusty. Call me lazy if you want but ... well enough excuses. Here they are....
PS. Do not forget to look at the picture galleries from my previous post.

    

    

    
 
   

    

    

    

    
 

 

Hello Again, Update Brake is Over, Many Pictures Included, Videos On The Way.

Well hello my dear follower, whoever you might be. Despite my huge desire to post more often, and to update the blog on regular bases, I come to understand that doing several things at the same time makes you so unproductive and even on occasion lazy to do things of secondary importance, especially if one of the activities involved is somewhat heavy labor, and that heavy labor is performed for the most part by me and me alone. So today for the first time this winter I felt like I might be getting a little sick, and decided to do the smart thing, to stay home and use the unexpected free time to update the this blog. I will post many pictures that I have taken for the last several months at various stages in the project. Also there are several videos that I will try to edit, and post. If not today hopefully in the next several days I will be able to do that. My problem is that I am not very good at video editing, I simply have not had the need to learn any software well enough to be confident using it, and as a result achieving the final outcome that I am looking for, but for the sake of making this post more interesting I will do my best to make at least something that I am not embarrassed of at later point. Enjoy the dusty mess and the gradual improvements that have happened in the fallowing galleries:

Stage One - Nearing Completion of the Demolition Part of The Project

Well, after 2 months brake, I am finally back at my remodeling project. I have not done as much as I wonted to do to many unexpected and uncontrollable by me events that needed my full attention. I decided this time to post a short video instead of pictures, and in one of my future posts I will go in detail and will rant about how the water radiators were installed in my absence, but for now I hope you enjoy the video.
