#16: Re: Was in the Catskills this past weekend. Author: Vince, Location: Brisbane AUSTRALIAPosted: Tue Oct 05, 2010 6:10 pm ---- That place is gonna end up twice the size of my home...it is huge. This is only a weekend hunting retreat isn't it? I mean, he's not going to live in it full-time is he...unless of course his missus kicks him out for spending the life savings.
Whichever way, it looks like it is going to be a truly great abode in a ver prettiful setting. I must admit, I'm rather green with envy.
Cheers, Vince

Tell me that they are going to put in the corner posts before they cover it all up....
I have never seen construction that didn't have the corner posts in before the second side was put up. There is nothing to nail the corners of the sheathing to..... ???

I think he will spend a lot more time here when he retires, but for now it's a weekend retreat. I can't wait to see my Sister-in-laws face the first time he stomps in the house with muddy boots .
PaulS,
The pics were from Saturday morning before work started. Shortly after the pics were taken, they had the corner posts in, and the walls plumbed and squared. I'm not sure why they didn't put them in before hand.
