Thanks!Really nice progress Kevin, any plans for the support posts?
I did the same and cornered them with quarter rounds. Easy and looks proThanks!
some of the wrap options are expensive and wrapping in in drywall seemed annoying. Planning to just boxing it out with 1 x 4’s.
Did you miter or butt joint the corners?I did the same and cornered them with quarter rounds. Easy and looks pro
to make up for the parkway sandblast effect
Did you miter or butt joint the corners?
Yeah, that happens. Possible causes for that are: leaving the tape on too long, insufficient surface prep before painting wall, or wall paint not completely cured. I've only tried the green version, but they also sell the "sensitive surfaces" version. I don't recall seeing it in the stores, though.I did use that at some
Point, ripped the paint clean off the wall
I think every highway in NJ is out to get your paint job. Not sure if it's the constant stream of dump trucks up and down 287, the tons of salt that go on the road ever time a snow flake is forecast, or maybe cars just have crappy paint these days?
Thanks!

This^^^Don't over-think it. White paint and done.
Butt joint cause easier, but I also framed in to use 1x6s. It's in the mud room and wider allowed for useful coat hooksDid you miter or butt joint the corners?
What type of whole house generator? My parents installed a generac propane system last year. I thought it was overkill but it got over 4 days of run time this year with all the windstorms.Too lazy to put a sub-panel in - so it is so crowded. Not sure why i didn't.
Then I put in the portable generator transfer switch (temporary for an emergency).
can't put the cover on the box.
Anyway - getting a whole home generator - mounting the transfer switch inside,
so added a new board.
When that gets set, I'll clean-up all the wires, and maybe add the sub-panel.
Where I'll be totally screwed because the wires will be too short.

Generac NG system.
Actually have to get a larger gas meter!
Whole house with load shedding for A/C and Pool pump.
C’mon, could you not find a more intriguing tool than the blade sharpener to pop in the picture? You know, something like the 3D dick printer that @The Landfill of Slacktown just got!Too lazy to put a sub-panel in - so it is so crowded. Not sure why i didn't.
