What did you work on Today; Home Edition

[moab_cj5]

More progress on the bed tonight. I got both boxes trimmed out and got one of them rough sanded. I also started on the box for the foot of the bed.

It might not look like much but this is 6 hours of progress without a picture of the 2nd case all trimmed out.

More progress on the bed tonight. I got all the structure done, assembled for test fit, then disassbled and finish sanded.

Tomorrow (I guess really, later today), I'll wipe it down then do the first coat of stain. Hopefully I'll have the final coat on in the evening so it's ready to go in her room on Sat evening.

Made some tools and pulled my well pump out. 190' of 1" galvanized pipe. Replaced the pump and put HDPE pipe in.

That’s ambitious. Well done! (get it? “well” done). 🤷‍♂️

The one at my house is an artesian well and has about 20psi of natural pressure at the head. Cool? Yes. Pain in the ass doing repairs? Also, yes. 😂

Impressive job! How did it go back together?

20' at a time is what I suspect.

Much easier. We used HDPE so I just lowered it all in by hand.

That's how it came apart. 21' actually...

After being gone for 10 days, I moved my daughter's finished bed into her room tonight.

Some pics while doing the finish.




It's tall, but it's what she wanted.

Awesome job. She will cherish that bed for years to come
