Foam insulation is amazing, crazy efficient! Now to get some rock on the ceiling and walls and cut some holes for Keystone wafer lights!
If you're looking for lighting systems you need to get in touch with www.nwlightingsystems.com. Ask for Dru Larson, he's great!
BTW Loving our Milwaukee M18 Fuel tools!

Word of caution with those pancake LED lights. (I just installed them and removed my can lights, LOVE THEM), If your house, or anyones house is so dry to create static, DO NOT touch the fixture at all when the lights are on!! The static will short out the unit and you will have to replace the complete unit. Ask me how I know. I used Juno brand and I called them after it happened and they told me that they will not take any DC static. But, Juno stood behind them for me and sent me new ones, THANK YOU JUNO!!! As for using that huge hole saw and you loving all that dust, get an old basketball, cut it in half, punch a hole in it in the middle, put the stem of the hole saw through the hole and into the drill, now the half ball will catch all the dust.

Corn Starch. A must for installing insulation. Fills your skin pores with corn starch, keeping the glass from making you itch.

Baby powder works too. During harvest and working around grain dust we'd always use baby powder so we wouldn't get the itchy grain dust in our skin.

@HootMaRoot 4 месяца назад

The closed cell foam you used for insulation is amazing stuff for areas with low humidity over the winter months. Many houses in Scotland/UK and while it worked for a while the damp winters soon took affect and the wood/osb started to rot, now many banks won't give mortgages on them due to the chance of having bad wood beams in the roof or wall

@WelkerFarms 4 месяца назад

We have heard that too, one must keep the local environment in mind when building.

I’ll never forget as a kid, my dad making me go up into the crawl space & lay fiberglass insulation. I was prob 8. Had Fiberglass all through my hands, so my mom gives me cotton winter gloves which made it much worse. I’ve despised insulation ever since.

I built my house in 2012-13, and Everytime I do a little project I can't believe I built a whole house by myself, my father helped me, I just built a 24X36 shop and I took twice as long as we hoped, that's why before we built the house I built a 32X52 garage because we knew we wouldn't do it if we waited to do it last, your house is beautiful, and big, mine is small ranch with a walk out basement, 1700 upstairs and same downstairs, it heats really cheap, with a wood stove in the basement, been 75-80 in the house all winter, its way to hot but better than to cold, god bless

@williamhamill813 4 месяца назад

when we finish insulating we do a blowdown test. Basily we pull a vacuum on the house and we find every leak. We mostly do it to find where moisture can ingress because if a house is super tight you better not have any moisture or the OSB will rot. Looks like a nice tight job the only thing I would have done is used ZIP board and taped the exterior rain screen tighter.

@user-uw8cz5eh1h 4 месяца назад

Before you get carried away with enclosing the walls you should consider Legrand - OnQ 17 Inch Media Enclosure for every area you plan to mount a tv on the wall. It will save you a ton of headaches with wires and instead of getting tilt flat wall mounts for the tv you should highly consider full motion. It will make your life better if you have to replace the tv or whatever. I got the cheap full motion tv mounts from Walmart. This tv mount goes on sale a few times a year. I got them for $20 each ONN Full Motion TV Wall Mount for 50" to 86"

Wife had a condo before we built our house. It had a drop ceiling and they left a space across the patio sliding door that looked over the intercoastal in So. Fl. I put in wireless roll up blinds. I had to drill many holes into the concrete ceiling. I now have a dust catcher but at the time I didn't. I was cutting holes in water bottles but nothing really worked great. By the time I was done so was my Makita drill. It was so clogged with concrete dust. Makita refurbished it for less than $10. I still have it and it works great. Drilling overhead is horrible!

When we built our house, every door that has side transom windows, they look great but a pain the arse as the screws can only go so far vs a door with no windows on each side can actually tie into the stud framing. The ones with the windows overtime sag and the seal on the bottom of the door has to be replaced quite often. I ended up shimming the bottom hinge to give it a small lift and it helped it a little. Just a thought.

I know there’s open cell & closed cell spray insulation. Is yours closed cell? Bc I thought the difference was closed cell is more rigid, open cell fills the whole space & is then trimmed down, right? You & Scott are doing it right. When you build from the ground up, esp in Montana, with harsh winters & tons of wind! These houses aren’t just houses, they’re extensions of the family farmstead. Hopefully it’ll continue to grow as your kids grow.
