  • @jchaynes5513
    @jchaynes5513 3 месяца назад +5

    Trent, you need to do the shelves for your wife. She does a crap ton of stuff for you and everyone. She asks for one little thing that's easily done at that point of the build. Trent, she lets you get a lot of toys/your way for yourself.

  • @critterkarma
    @critterkarma 3 месяца назад +5

    Allie has a great idea. Though archways, don’t really agree style wise with your home. So straight sided built in book shelves would work well. Another trick to retain some of natural light into the sun room, is to incorporate mirrors to line the back of the built in book case. This will expand the space, even with decor and books in front of them.

      Consider that there is less than five and a half inches of depth to these shelves unless they decide to build out from the wall. Theses shelves will be GREAT for tchochkes but not much else... you know the things some people think are cute that gather dust and need to be cleaned often. Allie will be happy which will make Trent happy... all for pretty much little more than a dust collector. As someone famous once said... "much ado about nothing."

  • @sherylmccormick754
    @sherylmccormick754 3 месяца назад +85

    Think about putting a ceiling fan light fixture in the big room. If the room's heat is trapping up high, the fan with blades reversed to push air downward will make a big difference and save on heating costs while increasing comfort. And if it gets warm in the summer reverse the blades to push air up and around to give air circulation and an adjustable breeze. Another energy saver.

      Put in the shelves for Allie! They can hold pictures and special momentos of your life together! Allie's your wife, friend, supporter, and treasure! Honor her and her tireless hard work supporting you and your channel. The shelves are a tiny "detour" off the build process. They will bring joy to Allie & every time she sees the things on the shelf, she will love you more for your gift of time spent for her.
      Happy wife, happy life. 🥰

You did mention it would be cool to sit and read a book. I'm hoping Trent will love it as much as we all do in the end. 😊❤

  • @steveadams4009
    @steveadams4009 3 месяца назад +2

    Back when I was a kid my father built a garage on the side of the house there were originally two windows there. My mother decided that she would take those two windows and make shelves out of them. You can hear everything that happened in the garage even people's voices. So if you decide to make shelves there's just no there will be no silence.

  • @lucymorgan8859
    @lucymorgan8859 3 месяца назад +2

    About the shelves, Allie, I think you're absolutely right!!! Inset shelving right there would be sooo cute, particularly with an arched top, but, here's a simpler way to achieve what you're looking for... keep the 2x4 s where they are, and have 3 sections of shelving... instead of actually building the ceiling of the sheving into an arch, simply cut out an arched panel, with perhaps some cut outs, or architectural trim to make it look more like furniture, and install it over the top of the shelves... much easier that way, very similar effect... love watching you guys, and darling little Leo!!!

    I'm so glad that Allie got her arches. I could tell she really wanted them, and Trent's ...hesitation, let's call it, was just because he was on a roll and the arches looked like a rock in the path. All's well that ends well. They will look great and be a nice touch in the away-from-kids area (something all parents need).

  • @Inconcvable77

    I agree 💯 with Allie. When you're building is the time to make the additions, even if it takes more time... Besides, if you added a shelf to a wall you would be constantly bumping into it and wishing you would have done what Allie wanted...

  • @stephenoshaughnessy2279
    @stephenoshaughnessy2279 3 месяца назад

    Allie, another suggestion you can make to Trent. Create an extended awning from the back door of the addition. Have Trent and team make some Greek pillars to support the awning. Call it a homage to antiquity. Somewhere on the house, build two or three French gothic gargoyles perched on the roof -- such as a stylized moose.

    A Cafe table and chairs in the mud room would be a nice addition. I had to laugh when Allie said they could use that room as a, get away from the kids room, there's no such thing as getting away from the kids unless they're sleeping. I think Hunter would be a good name for a boy who lives on a mountain.

    So nice that you took the extra time to do the arched shelves for Allie, Trent! In the grand scheme of things, an extra task added to your long list of construction building is a 'spit in the bucket! And l know you're glad you did it because the shelves will look great and they won't take up space like a piece of furniture.

      Great minds....I've been thinking the same thing. As for it being so much more work....can't see it myself. I mentioned it to my husband too (he's a builder) and he couldn't see any problem with putting shelves on one side (he did that here in the kids rooms and my craft/sewing room). I guess Trent's brain is on just one track at this point of the build and can't see past that.

    Allie, I know exactly what you're talking about. We had a window in our dining room that use to go out to our porch, but we ended up enclosing our porch so it was no longer functional. My husband actually surprised me by putting in a niche in the space with an arched top. I love it! Wish I could attach pictures so Trent could see how awesome it would be.

    Trent during your electrical rough in you really should start to think about Cat6 cabling. WiFi is great but hardwiring is better. Find an area in the home (central to everything) and do all the required “wiring” to move your Starlink router there in the future. Then run data (cat6) cables to key areas like where your smart TVs, home office, alarm panels, smart thermostats, smoke detectors, PoE security cameras, etc. Then run those cables back to where the starlink router will live. You can buy an inexpensive PoE switch big enough for all the data cables you ran. That switch will plug into your starlink router. Only use WiFi when you absolutely have to.
