October 31, 20223 yr comment_896884 The bi-pass doors are factory built. The shorter bi-pass doors above are built by myself, to access all of that storage left due to 10' ceilings. The storage above this linen closet wanted to be more stealth. So I built these doors flat and flush. I did not build this closet system, but I did install it.

October 31, 20223 yr comment_896885 All of the pulls for the lower cabinetry had to be inset into the doors and drawers. I built a jig for my trim router, which made it an easy task. Edited October 31, 20223 yr by swt61 Report

November 1, 20223 yr Author comment_896925 Looks nice! Me running into massive water drainage issues with my backyard project and fortunately got so good rain to test things out (spoiler they failed). Also, learned drain pipe comes in either small or really large (100’) lengths - of course I needed the 100’ section to get the right lengths. Edited November 1, 20223 yr by luvdunhill Report

Is there some gizmo I can put at the bottom of the deck to let the water through but hold back the granite? (I am putting the drain in in the corner of the first picture .. yes I know the first board isn’t parallel…it’s a correction.. and a second one at the gutter downspout which also is causing this issue) Edited November 2, 20223 yr by luvdunhill Report

November 2, 20223 yr comment_896976 A guy down the street is doing a permeable gravel driveway with these plastic hex squares that get secured down with pegs in a grid. Not sure if that is what you meant but check out similar systems if you are looking to hold loose rock in place. Report
November 2, 20223 yr Author comment_896983 That’s an interesting idea! I think the best option is to get all the drains working right in the first place. one more done, with some concrete so the wood doesn’t rot out. Report
November 9, 20223 yr comment_897409 On a new job today. Today is all about delicately removing these door trim plinths and base moldings in the hallway. I can't find this trim to patch in the kitchen, so I'm removing it in the hall, to patch the kitchen with. It's 200 years old and brittle as all he'll! I'll put similar but new molding in the hall.

November 17, 20223 yr comment_898015 Building back on the new job. The painters have their work cut out for them, making the battered old trim look good. I only have to trim two doors with old trim. You know you're working on an old house when the nails you remove look like this. Report

November 23, 20223 yr comment_898490 Time to decide if learning, and lying for Fusion 360 is worthwhile as once I print all the battery holders for Milwaukee and Dewalt and all the Festool accessories, I am going to run out of things to print as I really do not need any trolls or rainbow dragons. Maybe time lapse of flat prints are not that interesting Report
November 23, 20223 yr comment_898494 I have to open up some PETG and set up the dryer to start printing the shop stuff. After that there are many, many options for tool and battery holders on Thingiverse. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3983547 Edited November 23, 20223 yr by VPI Report
