Houston area (along with DB's not from Houston) BS thread

Aw.. I'm not the only one who gets his hair cut by a Toyota friend. Infact I'm going to Lopez's in like 30 mins for a hair cut lol

 

Who’s up for a floor tile demolition meetup!!!

I have one room to remove tile and mortar from. Roughly 30’x25’.

I’ll provide pizza, beer, jackhammer and hammers drills.

I figure 6-8 people could know it out in 6 hours. I’ll even be renting some larger tools to make it easier.

 

He was 1 of 4 that wanted that thing! And had another guy interested in that Colorado too

 

Manuel labor ?

 

I did

 

Ya need to rent a easy hammer cart from Home Depot

 

That is on the list. That and a concrete sanders.

 

Sometime in March. I will make a formal invite a few weeks before. Right now I still need to finish some Sheetrock work and to paint the kitchen cabinets and ceiling.

 

I admire your skill and DIY attitude!

While I try small projects around the house...I know the limits of my ability. Also, with the amount of hours at work, I choose not to undertake certain projects.

 

Thank you. I spent five years in my early 20s as a contractor and carpenter. Thankfully there I learned the skills that I had today. This project has been extremely difficult Since I am currently working in Louisiana during the weekdays. I think I’m averaging about 15 hours of work a month on the house. Now I’m in the last critical two months before our baby comes.

 

Plus all the money I save from not hiring a contractor has allowed me to buy some pretty bad ass tools.

 

What do you do anyway?? If you don't mind me asking!

 

Control Systems Engineer/Process Automation


Making plant operators happy and “ Doing my best to be the Engineer @BulletToothTony can't curse”

 

Hell I’d be doing that demo work in this weather rather than March. Finna get hot real soon.

I spent all New Years tearing this apart..




This was today. Waiting on beams to come in

 

All the major Demo work is done. Just have the living room tile left to remove. I section the rooms off with temporary dust walls and the AC is on. So it is not to bad.

 

im just glad you have your priorities straight

 

I'm a little sad my current project is coming to an end. I have been sitting with operations in their control room every week for the last year getting their input and designing and testing everything with them involved.

 

Thats actually really good for them i bet, direct input and then feedback on stuff they want changed is great to have. Where's your next job going to be?

 

It's been great. I even put a simulated system on their console so all the operators could get a chance to check out the system.

Same site, different unit. Moving over to the Greenfield side.

 

Staying in the swamp huh, lucky you lol
