Awwww, thank you so much!!! I'm just glad that my pictures are hiding the imperfections! LOL I found out yesterday when I laid down the subfloor I am out of square by about an inch! Which means, the pieces are on there a bit crazy and i had to take the SkillSaw to the ends and chop them off this morning. But I think even at that, it's still lining up as well as I can expect. I've never built anything, for sure. But I do a lot of quilting, sewing, knitting... things with my hands and having to figure out patterns, etc. I think being able to think conceptually (with fabrics) has helped me with wood. But... it's isn't over yet. And my ignorance has really slowed me down.
Oh- and I did eventually figure out that by putting the plate against the wood it was a bit better. But didn't figure that out until my hands were really hurting.
the coolest thing about chickens - is that they arent going to be in there with a level to double check your work - if its basically sound but not exactly perfect - they will still love you lol
Thank you! although, I'm still trying my best to make it as perfect as I can. I am horrible with math, etc, and I'm using one of those tape measurers for Dummies that have every single line read out for me in red. I'm a bit bummed now- it's already 95 degrees and the sun shining is HOT. I was soooo hoping to have ONE wall done this morning! But I'm miserable out there.
The sooner I get this done, the sooner my turkey has a 'real' home where I won't have to worry about the dogs that come up during the day. Even though my chicks don't come until October, I'm still on a time crunch so my turkey can get out of his 4X4 square temporary pen.
