Can't believe we already found somewhere we should have added an outlet. So instead I drilled through the cabinets to run an extension cord from the one outlet we *did* put inside the cabinets, and now there's power for the shredder.
-
ok, got the TV box mounted behind the TV, it only sticks out like 3 inches and still looks pretty good on the wall with no cables visible
-
I got the Frame TV hung on the wall, next up is to hide the box behind the TV.
If I had really planned ahead I would have put a panel in the wall so the box could live inside the wall and the TV would be flush, but I wasn't actually sure about the Frame TV when we had to make that call.
Normally it wouldn't be a huge deal to retrofit it, but this is a shear wall so there's actually plywood behind the drywall which makes the whole thing a lot more complicated. Plus there's also a million power and network cables inside the wall already so I'm not even sure there is room for a panel anyway.

I had to swap the outlet for a recessed outlet because the printer is almost exactly the full depth of the cabinet 😅 I don't know how we cut it that close after building the cabinet specifically for this printer! Either that or the outlet could have been 3 inches higher and it would have been fine. Works fine now tho.

I mounted this tiny Yololiv webcam on the back wall of Lily's office so she has a way to show off her wallpaper and desk on her livestreams!
-
Lily insisted on getting a fancy doorknob for her office, but couldn't pick one out on her own, so I finally found this and put it in today!

Best dish rack ever! I finished mounting the tray and built the rack above it. I think I'm still going to add a peg board to the left of the rack in order to be able to hang things from hooks.
-
It feels crazy to drill a hole through the perfectly nice cabinets, but this will be great when it's done. Unfortunately the hole didn't line up because the drip tray drain was welded on at a weird angle. So now I need to get a hole saw and make this hole larger.
-
Finally got the power supply for the motorized shades installed! I mapped out most of the wires, at least enough to know which ones need to be powered. I didn't bother getting out the ladder to trace the 6 that are super high up tho.
-
welp, we failed the mechanical inspection today because someone didn't hook up the microwave hood ducts. This is definitely not my job, but also I'm kind of surprised I didn't even notice this in the last couple months. Unrelatedly, the plumbing inspector went batshit and failed us for no reason, but that's a story for another time.
-
Trying to get to the bottom of the weird error the hot tub is showing. They wanted me to take a photo of the wiring, so here it is.
-
I didn't expect to have to trim this electrical plate cover to fit. Apparently I installed the closet track too close to the hole, tho that's the only place it could go because that's where the stud is.
-
Sprinkler guy missed a few caps when he was here... bathroom, bedroom, entry. Not giving me a lot of confidence.
-
and *this* is why I added a plug strip along the half wall! Each device's cord is a straight shot to the wall, no messy cords crossing over each other!
-
Finally finished the last two breakers, and now I have every circuit in the loft hooked up to the power monitoring system!
-
window blinds guys came today to measure the windows
-
new kitchen needs new dishes!
-
It was a close call but I got all the CT wires run through the conduit into the new low voltage box!
