Two storey extension - self build (as much as I can)

thanks. Those wago's can hurt when they snap shut. Everyone needs a tool belt and laser....

thank you, its been a challenging 12 months since I started

cheers

Thanks. Its 12.5mm boards and the type of fixings used are the toggle type which you drill a hole through the osb and they then spread out the load to the rear of the sheet. I've been up several times to test it.

12 months.. FFS pull the finger out... JOKING.. you're doing a great job.. keep it up

Momentous arrival at the weekend. Pretty much a year since I dug out the strip foundations we have a sofa (used)

Wow, what a feeling that must be. Quite a read this thread - great work.

Jesus, are all of those yours?

Incredibly impressed to read through all this - to not only have the technical knowledge but also the physical/practical skills to do it is something else.

thanks, its been bloody hard work but very rewarding. lots of ups and downs

yes, however I remember being 40, single and had paid my mortgage off.....52 now single, two mortgages and four kids!

thanks, its nice to hear. The kids are impressed but nice to hear it from grown ups!
