    Praying that the hurricane didn't impact you too bad. I live in Augusta and I actually thought of you and your family when the storm came through. Hope everyone is safe. Looking forward to your next video.

    Glad ya'll were able to get those stumps cleared! Looking forward to seeing the video where the mobile home comes down the driveway!
    Thanks for sharing the install of the rafter straps. Hadn't seen those before. Had I known, I probably would have just put those on my coop instead of adding the collar ties, but I guess for the coop it really doesn't matter that much. For the house it'll just let you have more headroom in the attic.
    Hope y'all stayed safe during the hurricane.

    • @DIY_or_DIE

    I remember when hurricane Fran dropped 8 trees on my (vertical) back yard. My family helped me some, but I had to buy a chain saw and cut the bigger trees into 6-inch cookies that I could barely haul out of my yard with my lawn tractor/trailer.

    Helped a friend once put together a shed (albeit a very small one) and I nailed the old fashioned way and loved every pound of the hammer 😊. Now removing studs, that’s a whole new different beast…I bet it was satisfying after it was done though 😊. Progress ❤

    • @DIY_or_DIE
      @DIY_or_DIE  Месяц назад

    They make a device called a palm nailer, just for driving nails like that. Much easier than a hammer.

    When you get enough wood cut the tree will fall. Hope the last hurricane didn't make too much extra work for you. We just came through Lyons ,GA and man it rained. Well we traveled south from Greenwood,SC on our way home. Hooked back up in Folkson on 301 south. I was thinking that if I knew where you were I would say hi.
    Brother and sister, I say a prayer for you everyday. God bless your family.

    Hey folks, thanks for the update. Great job getting the stumps sorted. Hopefully all of the clearing and widening of the driveway doesn't affect your privacy too much. How long until the delivery of the manufactured home? Have a great week and stay safe!

      Thanks for the comment! Fortunately, our road is half a mile long, so we are still quite tucked away. The hurricane really did a number on our area, so the delivery date is up in the air right now. Hoping sooner than later.
