The building material arrived today!!! 50 sheets of 5/8 fire code drywall, 60 8′ 2×4’s, studs, jacks, headers, and cripples. 190 feet of copper pipe (type L, thank you), 100 ft of black iron pipe (gracious!). Truck arrived at 10:30 and unloaded with a fork lift.
Since my 21-year-old assistant was nowhere to be seen I started moving in the lumber myself. A teenager from the block saw and offered to help…..after lunch. I hired him on the spot, but he never returned.
And it was, like, 110º f today at noon!!! Anyway, I got it all moved by 3:30 by myself.
