I still had some footage laying around from the house that my brother in law is building. Already from last September.... Something with zero time due to my own building project (renovation)

Never mind the last part, apparently I still had a marker in the video editor...

Interesting choice for the roof shingles - kinda looks like it's old right away. They'll have moved in by now I guess.

Much further advanced since your last post of the subject, Peter.  And it must be nearing completion by now?

They have made some nice progress,    are the roof tiles reclaimed thus the mix of colours?

Yeah, they are second hand.
Nope, far from it.
this will take a year at least. He is doing almost everything himself.

Not at all.
Brickwork is not done yet.
I'll post a recent video soon.
Remember, BIL is doing all the work himself.
Ok, bricklayer is hired, but it's a 'inbetween' job for him.

Yes, it is reclaimed. A lot of the house is.

OIC.  When are they hoping to move in?

They hope to be sleeping there after the summer. They will start from the top with finishing the inside.

Quite a way to go then, until completion.

Very nicely documented Peter.    Still looks like a lot of work needs to be done.  Does he have tentative date set for moving in?

Blériot53 Posted at 12-22 03:06

Yeah, lots of work 'in between' the real job.

No date. Impossible to calculate with how they are building.

Nice,   and saves a little money too.

Seems to be a family thing doing everything yourself ;-)

DAFlys Posted at 12-22 05:12

Yeah absolutely.
He got a massive oak floor for a fraction of the value like this.

Yup. It's all in the family

Nice and smooth.

Nice,   I know a guy that did that with a mahogany flew that was reclaimed from the walls of a boxing club,    I got lucky and got a lot of the off cuts.

BetterBizTech Posted at 12-22 17:21
Nice and smooth.

Thanks a lot. Second flight with the Mini 3 Pro. Still need a lot of flying hours before it gets comfortable again.

Oh yes, that is nice too.
I love re using old wood.

Montfrooij Posted at 12-23 02:56

Ive been using it for smaller projects like phone stands,   and quite a bit of wood turning.  I even made one vase that was a mix of oak and mahogany.

Very nice. Sometimes I wish we had a big shed.

I like to adjust the exponential controls a little lower so they're smooth.

I prefer a brick built strucrture,

What settings do you use?
I have not found the right one for me yet.

Yeah, here a shed can be brick too.

I have lessened the sensitivity on yaw by about 20% because for me it's too sensitive and jerky. I have also lessened the sensitivity on the right stick for panning by about 10% because I find that I don't always move perfectly straight on the forward and backward, but it all depends on what you think you need a little forgiveness on. Make small changes because lowering sensitivity creates a little play without movement but beyond that it gets more sensitive so it's different for everyone.

Ok, thanks. I'll have a go next time.

I understand and no problem.  Still based on the latest update you provided he has really made a ton of progress.  Really close to finishing the exterior.  No doubt the interior will be quite time consuming also, especially if he is doing all the work himself.

Yeah, I'll be helping whenever I can but that won't be too often now.

Montfrooij Posted at 12-23 12:32

No doubt, especially since you both have your own busy projects going on.

But I'm sure there is more than enough to do after I'm done

Now in thinking about it you'll finish your reno long before he completes his build.

Yes, the light at the end of the tunnel or the finish line whatever you want to call it.  That will be a sweet day for sure Peter.

Can't wait for that. Ok, wait, I have to do it myself
