Matt - I bought my last Milwaukee tool a few years ago - One of their chop saws for steel. It was about the most expensive in the catalog at the time, but I'd always bought Milwaukee when I could. The saw came, it had "Made in Japan" on the label. That really :censored: me off. You're right about the masonry, nothing lasts long. Even gloves, moving block, brick & stone is tougher on them than wood.

Japan makes good stuff tho.

Every so often, the town hires a firm that does a revaluation here. As part of the process, assessors pay you a visit, scope out the place, and assign a valuation on the property.

Mind you, you get zapped more for a marble mantle or a re-done kitchen than for a shed.

Not sure how it would work in KY. You seem more county based, where up here, everything's done on the town level. (Counties exist but they're pretty unimportant, bordering on irrelevant if you're not in jail or in the county nursing home.)

Off H²'s topic but: Msr. Woodbooga hit it---County systems are kinda like a male T_T--useless. They repeat what local and state gov'ts are supposed to do. Kindly place this rant on the political forum.:jawdrop:
Even in the great state of Live Free or Die, counties are functionless. Incarceration should be at the state or fed level. JMNSHO

Total thread jack...but our 10 (?) town Council of Governments looks to have good momentum behind hiring a regional assesor. Town assesors will still do the normal day-to-day changes, the regional assesor(s) will do the revaluations. They think they can do it with employees for 1/2 the cost of hiring a firm.

State's been screwing around with the schedule for the last 15 years, I think the current law is a physical revaluation every 5 years. Used to be every 10, then it went to a physical reval every 12 years with statistical revals in years 4 and 8.
 
They will bother you around here in slow times, iv caught them snooping around, but only when i had an open permit. I yelled at them last time and haven't seen them back since... he could have gotten shot if i didn't see his badge.
 
Well, 7 lbs of nails and a sore thumb later and it's ready for a roof. I ordered the tin Saturday, should be in on Wednesday. I got half the hurricane straps on and started putting up the supports for stacking wood, I bet I'll have wood in there before the tin comes in.

It got dark on me tonight, I'll snap a pic tomorrow. I'm whooped.

Snapped a pic just now. Started moving wood in and put my splitter in the other half temporarily.

Went to get the tin for the roof yesterday and they had it cut 100" short. Bah.

Ian, man your shed looks solid as a tank, and really looks good. Glad to see you getting it up before the bad weather. Congrats on a job well done, keep updating us with pics as you progress.

A buddy of mine that always accuses me of over-building everything told me that I built a multi-purpose wood shed/tornado shelter.

M7, where abouts are ya? Pine is going to cost me $301 (45¢/bf) at the same mill I went to for the structural stuff. I'm pricing some Hemlock on Monday from another place that supposedly is fairly reasonable.

It was having a hard time. Someone has relieved me of the good 12ga extension cord I bought in February so I was stuck running it with a 16ga cord. It couldn't draw enough juice to run like it should have. I was using it to rip the 2x8s to 10 deg so the rafters would sit flush instead of riding the corner and it didn't like being throttled by that light weight cord.

That's a good way to burn up a saw motor, Ian.


Nice looking shed. :cheers:
 
Ian, you asked if I had a Band? That would be the big orange contraption that is under the partially completed "mill" shed.....:D

You need to get back on the caffeine:laugh:
