6.6.2017

Jim's latest batch of plumbing parts came in the mail yesterday so he was able to start putting the manifold back together.  He put the new union connection on.  He didn't turn water back on - he wanted to let things set up a bit.


Part of the order was another roll of blue Pex - so he was able to run the rest of the cold lines and get them hooked up.  However, since Jim decided to run the dishwasher and refrigerator off the kitchen line instead of giving them their own line, he really didn't need this big of a manifold.  He's considering buying a smaller one and saving this for the house.  Stay tuned...


The cold line is now in place for the utility tub in the woodshop and the ends are all capped.


Look closely at the back of the picture and you'll see the new line going to the apartment bathroom toilet.


Here is the line in the bathroom - Jim put the valve on so it's ready to go!



He also made all the parts and pieces for the new overhang...


This was a picture of Jim's work last night on the baffles in the laundry room...


 
This afternoon, the main job was to make the vent ductwork for the bathroom exhaust fan.  Here Jim is cutting the pipe to size...


Making sure everything fits...


I went up in the attic to push down on the vent pipe up there while Jim was gluing.  It's now all completed and looks great!


Finishing off the bathroom wall...


Putting insulation in some studs way up top and in the back!


End-of-the-day...this wall section is all done!
