A little tip my father gave me was to use a spray bottle to wet the block just a little, it makes the mortar stick better. Looking good!

Tom, you have skills I'll never have. I'm envious.

HW, I promise you that I am not that skilled. I'm just stubborn and confident that I can figure it out. Most of this really isn't that hard it's just jumping in there and trying it. Plus I've been blessed with a great teacher, my Dad.

I'm really enjoying your building/remodeling videos. Doing some of that myself, however, deer season is not far away and you still had a couple rifles that needed some love. Pretty sure the house project takes priority, which it should.....I think, but I hope you've blocked out a week or so to be in the woods. Gotta remember to invest some time for our personal mental and emotional health yaknow! Thanks and have a good day.😊

Bob, you are correct about me still having a couple of rifles that need some love but sadly I haven't had time to touch one since spring. And sadly I don't see myself getting to hunt this fall either. I really want to get this house finished as soon as possible and the one I'm in sold before the market collapses. Of course the housing market might be fine and the economy bounces back but I'm sure going to sleep better when I get this one sold. I have some serious concerns about where we are right now and where we might be going so I've decided to keep at it until this is done.

Around here one of the methods for making foundations for a house is a concrete pad. The various inlets and outlets are known and hard plastic pipes are laid to come up in the right place and out at a slope beyond where the house will be. Then concrete is poured up to a foot thick to make a level surface. After that the walls and insulation are craned into place. Or they can use bricks.

It is rare, at least these days. It's a Queen Style and 3 over 1 was really popular on Craftsman style homes in the early 1900's.

back in the "progressive era" of teddy roosevelt and wilson, the progressives did a lot of studies on human optimal performance (how to get the last ounce of physical work out of someone and at the lowest wage)... this was all done for the goal of maximizing corporative progressive control of the society and the population... anyway, it standardized and institutionalized routines and ideals that we still use today... one of the concepts was "critical path methodology" (henry ford perfected it) ... what you discussed in layman's terms was that concept, which is "getting all the necessary first steps and materials together in a "just in time" manner to complete the task in an efficient and optimal system for the task/product to be accomplished in an orderly and sustainable procession"... in some ways that seems dehumanizing when it's done on a mass scale but yet so many things have been accomplished by these principles and methods... anyway, there's always a balance of things (between "corporate elitism" and "rugged individualism" ) and God seems to instill that goal within everyone because at the end of the day, it's important to reflect on your work and feel good about what you've accomplished...
