Wife wanted white cabinets and I wasn't really interested in learning myself...that is until I came to after passing out when I got the three quotes, the CHEAPEST was $4800:eek::eek:

No way in hell that was happening, so I took $300 and bought all the paint, primer, HVLP sprayer and paint shelter I needed. The doors drawers came out spectacular, the frames look fine however I rolled them instead of trying to spray indoors and that hurt the finish..oh well, I'm way ahead and have a happy wife.

That looks pretty damn good to me, I like the island

Thanks...I thought I would like a bigger house when I moved from Roseville, but all it has meant is there is more things to break, fix, or improve and when they do, it takes 5x the time:/

When we first moved out here, we watched my sister's place in Loomis for a week, took care of her animals. My wife loved it, horse property in the country, that is where she wanted to live. She wanted a swimming pool. Have you ever had to take care of a swimming pool, or a farm?

Small place with a short commute made more sense to me. Less time in the car, quick to get downtown, small house with shade trees works out okay in the summer. If'n I get a hankerin' to swim, I have friends and family that have a pool. Pool is like a boat, best to have a friend with one.

Yep, I have a pool now. I wish I could go back in time and punch myself in the face for giving in on buying a house with a pool. Never, ever again.

I like that. Clean, tasteful and simple. What's the vanity made of?

Frankly, I could get onboard the before or after. Well done either way.

I live in Florida, so it's the law. You must have a pool. It would be fine, but every ten years you need to spend $7k to refinish it.

Who's leg is that?

If'n you had asked me, I could have poked you in the eye or something when you brought up getting a pool.

I am glad you did not buy that place over near Garden Highway you were renting, I could see that place having 15' of water in it someday.

During the housing craze, that place peaked at around $300k...I looked near the bottom and it was just below $100k...that's a serious hit!

I didn't want the pool, never did, don't use it but as they say "happy wife, miserable pool"

Well I figured I’ll resurrect this thread one more time since I’m at home remodeling!

This pic reminded me of a pretty impressive event from my very early 20’s. I was working in a road construction company yard that happened to adjoin a giant rock quarry. It was summer and one of the massive payloaders from next door showed up with what appeared to be a 5ft in diameter wrecking ball low hanging off the bucket by a chain connected to the top of the bucket. The ball needed to go on a semi flatbed for transportation and as the pay loader approached the trailer it slowly elevated the ball. As the bucket travelled its arc, all the tension in the world transferred onto one chain link and when it tapped out, the ball fell about 6 ft through the wood floor of the flatbed sending the trailer about 3 ft into the air like a giant leaf spring and adult men scattering all over the place. It was a code brown moment.
