Steve and company have dived right into their in-floor radiant heating project up at the house. Most of the materials are there, ready to be installed, but more boxes of manifolds and Pex tubing were just delivered today by FedEx. Do I sound like I know what I am talking about? Hardly! But I try to learn something new every day:) Here's the weekly rundown...Steve has got Larry back helping him out. They are boring holes in the floor joists of both levels so that they can run the Pex tubing which will eventually carry warm water all throughout the house to keep us toasty in the winter. There are a couple of spots that are going to be hard to get to because there is no basement underneath; just a crawlspace. Steve will figure it out I am sure!
Meanwhile, Spike has returned from Florida and is recreating both our front and back stoops in his masterful, mason way. Once he is done outside he plans to freshen up the den fireplace brickwork and the hearth as well. Lenny still needs to finish the dining room fireplace and hearth. I understand that should happen next week!
Finally, Raulli's Ironworks came up with the bolts that they plan to install on the lakeside wall to support the upper deck. Steve bored the holes in the two large vertical beams and began to trim around the area so that the bracket can be put up next week.
