I just installed the living room intercom! This end is done, the other end in the network closet is done enough for it to be working but will need some tidying up still.

My electrician explained how the other end is connected... the white wire is actually the second phase hot wire, and the green wire is tied to both ground and neutral at the pole.
and we're live! Feeding the generator inlet with a 30 amp extension cord that runs to the temp pole at the street!

Hooking up a 3-wire extension cord to a 4-wire plug, what could go wrong 😃
-
Appliances! It's starting to feel like a real house!
-
Roof progress! The attic hatch is done, and the rooftop shower is installed!
-
I got the TV installed in the train bathroom! It's so cool! If you close the bathroom door it's really surreal because it's the only frame of reference for outside the bathroom.
This video is the train from Portland to Seattle. Now we just have to ride a bunch more trains and stick a camera out the side on all of them.

Apparently the stud in the middle was slightly warped and the mirror wasn't sitting straight. They opened up the wall to shave the stud down a bit. Gives me a chance to clean up the wiring a bit while it's open

Stair railing progress while I was away this week!
-
Wet bar progress: backsplash is complete, and cabinet pulls installed!
-
Testing out new cabinet pulls for the wet bar. These are a lot lighter and smaller than the ones in the kitchen so I think they go a lot better with the wet bar cabinets.
-
Kitchen progress: cabinet pulls got installed today!

I hauled 200 pounds of quartz slab 10 miles on my bicycle from the slab yard today.
This is for the countertop for the short cabinets in the bedroom closet, under the fold down ironing board. This scrap was $60, but they almost didn’t let me leave with it on my trailer. I had to sign a thing that said I understand how heavy it is and I am taking responsibility for transporting it 😂
-
The crew installed the antenna tower on the roof today and ran the conduit into the cabinet inside! I can't wait til I can start loading it up with gear!
-
The painters finished the stain on the range hood and took down their plastic sheeting, looks so good! Next up picking out cabinet hardware.
-
Today I went around and took pictures of all the cabinets to make a list of what cabinet hardware to buy. Turns out there are lots of rules about how cabinet hardware should be placed, but also you can break a lot of the rules. I think I have it figured out though.
-
The painters are working on the last bits here and there, painting the picture rail and staining the handrail.
-
I installed the door code keypads today! It took so long before we were ready to install them that UniFi launched a new version that I bought instead, so the back plate is the wrong size. It matched the tall skinny UniFi readers so well, but I like this keypad better so here we are.
-
We really have to make a decision about the kitchen backsplash tile now! I got two more sample boxes in this week.

House progress: wet bar countertop is in!
