ctaylor3737 Posted July 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 Liar! LOLI'm afraid I am, it's not easy lol. I wouldn't recommend doing this if you haven't done a lot of construction before. this work would have cost 4-5k at least. I did it for under 2. Was a b putting up sheetrock on the ceiling by myself. lol-Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctaylor3737 Posted July 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 Today's Update!!! Started out with this hahaha It has begun! Wanted to lay more tile but my knees told me no lol. Even with kneepads still sucks. Took me longer to clear all the tools and junk, lay chalk lines, mix thinset than it did to lay those tiles lol. Should have all the tile laid tomorrow. Monday after work I'll grout it! Tuesday paint the walls! Wednesday start the stand building!!!! Install drains, waterlines, storage room. Done! Lol I wish probably add a few days for being lazy and tired after work! -Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High5's Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 All the metal parts,float valves, tap fittings and such and it looks like you may use a lot of Teflon tape to install all of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 O.k this amuses me if you say you live in old wetland is that like a swamp that was laid up to dry and if so where does all the water come from then?Around here we get very little rain so when a wetland is laid up and filled it is stuffed forever. Just saw your update that looks very good mate and you work fast too. Sent from my BlackBerry 9860 using Tapatalk ctaylor3737 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctaylor3737 Posted July 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 Got 3/4 of the floor done, needed to relax the rest of the night. Floor is running pretty straight. A few things here and there but overall happy with it. Not bad for a guy that doesn't do it everyday. My 15$ yard sale tile saw is working great! Leaks a little but oh well can't complain. Forgot how tile wears you out lol. Also stopped and picked up the rest of my 10g tanks from the petco store! -Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OblongShrimp Posted July 9, 2014 Report Share Posted July 9, 2014 Very sweet! When I put my air valves into the PVC I used silicon since it wasn't permanent but it did seem to help make them air tight. Soothing Shrimp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
