Good progress. Plumbing is actually kinda fun. Got to solder new shower plumbing in the kids bath today - that made the morning. Then came the afternoon...
Electric work stinks.
We re-wired, and re-wired, and re-wired. Cut back, new junction box, splice, replace, new wire, not enough slack, pull staples, strip wire, hand cramp on wire nut, shocked!?! What? Another big surprise - the third floor and living room circuits are connected to each other. Not sure how or why, but pretty sure it isn't right. Not really safe I'm sure - Mike will tell ya. Thanks to Mike, by the way, for helping out again today - and sorry about the jolt. And thanks to David for pulling the bulk of the load on electric so far. Sorry plumbing is more fun.
It really was a productive day; the detail work is just more tedious than the earlier demolition. My baseline schedule allowed 9 days for electric and plumbing, and my new schedule shows 15 - we're 6 days into it; will be more than 9, but I can't see it being 15... Just need to be patient and get through it.
Tomorrow - more electrical. Plumbing is stalled waiting for 4 PEX stub-outs and new tub and shower fixtures for the master bath to rough in. We haven't cleaned seriously for a few days - need to get to that again soon too.
