Hey J.W. Congratulations! It really looks great. I had faith in your abilities, but Gee what a job .... All by your lonesome! (Except for Benita's supervising) When are you going to break it to her, that it is NOT her new digs!? Have a good one!
....nice job John! ..yes, we are getting plenty of rain lately in the Houston area and maybe you are as well out there, so yessir ...time to get the water collection system installed on it!...again, nice job on getting it done.
Su-weeet! It looks like a sports stadium roof. I know you'll get the gutters and water tanks in place as soon as possible. Have you thought about closing in the ends of the roof? That's a considerable gap.
Iv'e been following (lurking) you for quite some time.. We have property out in West Texas (at the base of the Guadalupe mountains) and your doing very similar things that we are planning.. Congrats on the building roof!
Well done John. Nothing like designing and building your own structure. As you say - it's fun working in 3D! Looking forward to seeing it myself when I make my annual trek this year.
John, I must apologize , I never thought your finish it with out some heavy lifting equipment.
ReplyDeleteWell done..
Now you can kick back and considerate on keeping warm for a few days.
no rest for the thirsty...gotta get gutters and tanks in place next.
ReplyDeleteCONGRATULATIONS!
