100% agreed Dave. 

John did attempt the "plumber crack" in the first picture though.  I thank the photographer for the correct angle....didnt really want to see that.

That's a BUNCH of concrete! Izzat 3" thick? How big's the pad? Did ya arrange for the metal 2Xs or did you use a hammer drill etc. to mount them? My older stepson does concrete, and we keep talking about putting in a pad of about 12 to 14 by 16 or 20. And now I'm up to 5 + accessories, and we could move some other stuff outta the shed....but I so deserve a better kitchen!! What to do, what to do.
Nice looking add on. Looks like it's going smoothly. Is that just a storage shed you're building?

I ended up using the same amount on my garage I built, only it was 1000 feet.  I had some pretty deep footers.  The guys screwed up, I should have only need about 18 yards.  What is concrete going these days for a yard.  Up here in Flag, when I bought mine is was going for $130/yard.  Concrete guys costed me an extra 1700 dollars!!!

Post by: bbqwant2b on August 06, 2009, 11:10:13 am
I think our cost is around $82 a yard

Title: Re: Chubby Hubby's new Backyard Paradise.. Enjoy!!
Post by: azradtech on January 22, 2010, 05:52:45 pm
Get it all done at once. The pain meds are much better than beer.

Post by: force on January 22, 2010, 08:02:42 pm
go to Dr. sheridan..... he is the surgeon for Dbacks and other major league players..... one of the best in the country...... I had my elbow surgery 2 years ago from him.......
Title: Re: Chubby Hubby's new Backyard Paradise.. Enjoy!!
Post by: azkitch on January 22, 2010, 08:34:21 pm
Whoa. All that surgery is gonna cost you an arm and a leg!

Sorry. I couldn't let it go.
John, I'm sorry you're all tore up. Get well soon. And there are better ways to jack up your pain threshold!
Title: Re: Chubby Hubby's new Backyard Paradise.. Enjoy!!
Post by: shortbus_35 on October 01, 2010, 01:17:34 pm
Hope I am not beating a dead horse, posting in this old topic but I wanted to see if there were finished pictures or if the project is still on hold due to John's injuries??

John - Take the elbow stuff seriously if you haven't already.  My wife is working on year #2 and surgery #3 because she waited too long after tearing ligaments and tendons four years ago.
