Today was - annoying- if you do plumbing as a professional career... I feel for you! Crawl spaces, piping, dragging tools into crawl space lugging a flash light is just annoying. I dug out the spray foam from dryer vent exit so I could move the location to make room for cabinet. Made the Trip to HD singing the tune bobbin my head picking out some extra pro level shit was probably the highlight of my day. Got home and got to work. Pulled the vent pipe, crawled into shitspace- worked like a coal miner in a corner in an awkward position and got this.774B555A-5A42-4CEA-8D2D-B31C6EAB2E32.jpeg7F5A6B9A-EC26-406E-AFD8-4DC6B889781F.jpeg
I ended up busting the 90 because whoever put the junction into floor used some liquid nails to secure it... what a Kentucky fried deuchebag!!! Anyways, got that situation under control, drilled new hole and installed the extra pro level dryer vent grommet and installed dryer vent hose. Brought dryer back as far as possible to see where my reverse Helen Keller skills came into play.625088C4-D989-4F15-AE9E-55191B958999.jpeg
-Insert pet detective “ like a glove” thought. And move on.
I needed to pad wall out far enough for hanging rail for cabinets. Stacked 2, 2x6’s and hung rail- by this time I wasn’t up for taking pics but now I need to add 2,2x6’s to bottom of cabinet above washer so it can sit plum

Well I deffinitly didn't plan or want to replace our kitchen sink or faucet after I had just done a ton of work in the kitchen. But of course the house has different plans and we noticed a bad crack in the bottom of the basin. Got a good deal on this one and just put it in todayPXL_20210228_170732119.jpgPXL_20210228_170629543.jpgPXL_20210228_170554385.jpgPXL_20210228_170413377.jpg

Looks good I hate plumbing work especially with the sink drain something always leaks after you’re done. Or you need to make 3+ trips minimum to the store. Or both.

In hindsight we should have done a double wide sink too 13 years ago when we gutted the kitchen but didn’t think of it.

That type of faucet was a game changer for me. Never thought I'd appreciate mine as much as I do.

I was pushing for the big double wide single basin vs the double basin and since I was the one and I got o win this one 😂

Finishing up the master bath. The wife finally found an acceptable vanity but wayfair... so now I'm stuck with it as they deliver another free of charge. They won't take it back. Cant donate it. Don't want to fix it. Too heavy to toss it myself. I'll find someone to take it off my hands but what a PITA
