Yeah, on the PC now, I see the creases by the door frame.
I cant wait for the opticians to re open, I need my glasses upgraded, they are a bit scratched up, and the close up stuff is getting blurry again. I had to put my 50 times goggles on this morning to thread up a needle lol.

It is not often that I will work on the workshop while the kiddo is here, but I’ve been on a roll lately. Today I got everything ready to primer the veg room while the kiddo was at mom’s. So after the kiddo went to bed at 10:00, I changed clothes and got two quick coats of primer in there. I left the door open with a couple of fans blowing in there. It should dry pretty well overnight. It’s starting to look like a room.

Texture, in the veg room, is mainly for convenience. The room is just for mothers and young clones. I plan to veg and flower in the big room.

Last night I got two coats of flat white exterior paint in the veg room. I had just enough paint left over from the flower room to finish the veg room perfectly. No pictures because they look almost identical to the ones I posted yesterday. I don’t know how much longer I can keep up this pace, but I sure do like how fast the progress is, relative to the previous rate of progress anyway.
I still have quite a few tasks left to complete the rebuild. Next I need to finish the tape and mud in the lung room. Then I need to cover everything in the lung room in plastic. After that, I’ll sand everything and apply the texture. Finally, I’ll prime and paint the lung room. From there, I need to get the doors installed and painted. With the doors in place, I’ll be able to finish the trim and baseboard. That should finish up the lung room with the exception of a few little things like wall plates for the switches and outlets.
If my timing works out, I’ll be just finishing the lung room when my tent is ready to harvest (sometime in the middle of July). From there I can begin building my lights and installing the remote driver board. I need to sew my custom flowerbeds and mix up about 90 gallons of soil too. I’m sure there are a few little things I’m not thinking about that I’ll need to take care of, but I’m hoping to begin growing in there by the beginning of August.

I find if I make a lot of dust sanding down the mud, I need to wipe the walls, as the dust stops the paint drying to the drywall board properly, and when you put a second coat on, it sometimes pulls the first coat off where the dust was painted over. That mud dust gets all over the house, no matter how hard you try and sheet up doors with plastic, I usually dont paint until all the sanding is finished, but you have had to do a swap around, moving stuff from room to room, as you did them, which burns up more time having to constantly move stuff.
When I did our basement it nearly killed the heat ex-changer on the heat pump, all the fins got clogged with dog and cat hair and dry wall dust in a couple of months. I was changing the filter regularly but did not realize it also recycles the air back into the bottom of the furnace, by passing the filter, a bad design problem, I have now made a home made filter over that re cycle entrance, to stop it happening again. The dust is so fine though most just passes through the filter spreading it everywhere.

Yeah, when I did the flower room by hand, that shit got everywhere. I even found a fine dust on my dishes in the closed cabinets. So I decided to seal the veg room when I did it. I also decided to use a palm sander attached to my shop vac. Well let me tell you this, a shop vac in a closed space generates a lot of heat. Between that and the respirator, I had to stop a few times to catch my breath and cool off. But there wasnt a speck of dust outside that room.

I got bought a palm sander for Christmas, by my brother in law, as I had used his for a couple of months re finishing kitchen cabinets. I wish I had, had it, when I was doing my basement, I put up a half panel in his ceiling back in January after a water pipe burst, They just rip through dry mud effortlessly, I have seen the shop vac attachments for them as well, really labour saving. My shoulders would be burning after an hour on ceilings with a sanding pad on a stick, the absolute worst part of dry walling lol…

I keep looking at my remodel? Could of done this better? Tweaked that? Yet, I’m still excited by what I created, even with a professional background. ReikoX? My suggestion? Blitz to the finish? I.M.E. So relaxing to walk into those rooms, and think “I built this, for Me”.

We’re the cabinets original to the house? I don’t think Phillips screws became a common screw until the 60s most older stuff is assembled with standards
