    Look good! Is the fridge all the way in, or just partial? Guessing only partial until countertops are in.

    Its actually all the way in. It is a deep fridge but sticks out some. If we went with a counter depth fridge it would sit all the way back in.

    We should have a "shittiest jobs in the construction industry" thread. My top three. Insulating. Roofing. Mudding drywall.

    I vote for sanding drywall. Mudding isn’t all too bad.

    Sanding is included in the mudding. At least it is if you plan on finishing the job. lol

    Redoing the front porch in cedar. Debating on 6x6 or 8x8 timbers for the two posts. Anyone think 8x8 would look to chunky? Was planning on 6x6 but don’t know if they’ll look to small.

    I vote for 6x6. I think you are right and 8x8 will look too big.

    6x6. With small of a landing 8x8 will look out of proportion.

    I did get the attached garage floor stained/sealed. This pic is still with the wet sealer, it dries to a matte finish.
