[Cape Brewing]

I don't think whale porn is even legal in the US.

Pretty sure its not.

Decided that I needed to redo the transition from dome to arch door. My original design relied too much upon mortar filling spaces. That mortar may fail over time. I want solid brick where I can and as lite mortar as possible. So I knocked apart the old transition area...

 

[paulthenurse]

And rebuilt itb y cutting bricks to fit the space...

You are using refractory cement, right?

You should quit your job and go do standup. You funny! Shower grout. That's quality laugh stuff there. Anyone can work for a bank, talent like yours shouldn't be wasted.

Yes I am. I'm out of both mortar and bricks at the moment, I'll get more on Wednesday.

 

[Cape Brewing]

Good call, buyin' em' three at a time.

That way the guys at the stoneyard won't suspect anything.

Sneeeeeaky sneaky.

Ya. But I didn't mean you. I meant ^^^. Has anybody even got an idea what that chowdahead is talking about?

Thanks for the good karma for my Dad. I appreciate it.

Picked up bricks this week and stayed up Kate thinking about the door/entry build. Well the old ways are the best ways so "When in doubt, mock it out."
. My paper and pencil ( and xerox) mock up if the opening.

 

[paulthenurse]

Checked reality vs mock up and it works. Yea!

Then I laid out a mock up of the walls to check

 

[paulthenurse]

Those whole bricks will be cut in half then trimmed on the sides for a snug fit. At least that's the theory. Everything works in Theory. Unfortunately when I made an offer on a house in Theory they wouldn't budge on the price. (Why should they? Everything works there!). So I live in Stoughton. It's like Theory... Just a whole lot different.

Could be worse... I could live in Norton.

All of this to heat up frozen pizzas? Kidding. Sweet build can't wait to see it complete.

It's not delivery. It's Da Back Yahd!

For whatever reason after I signed up it automatically posted on this thread saying "They're special". I have no clue why just in case anyone is wondering why that was there.

 

[bluemoose]

Paul is definitely "special", so it works.

 

[HoppyDaze]

I don't even remember what's being built here.

 

[bluemoose]

Pretty sure we are building a terrible thread that no one will ever want to read.

Mission accomplished! (And long before the pizza oven)

 

[ComcastWineRookie]

no, we are still reading, mostly to see how many posts till its done

 

[TheDudeLebowski]

He'll eventually have a cookout and we'll rename it to "The hopefully not obnoxious Port-O-Potty build thread"

 

[paulthenurse]

Finally! Took almost 200 posts but somebody finally said something truly funny in this thread!

The oven will be done for Masstoberfest. Count on it.

 

[Cape Brewing]

Nice. Burnt pizza instead of pork jerky!!

Now its a party!

Do you REALLY want to start talking smack about pig roast fails? Do you REALLY want to go down that bumpy road. Cause I can guaranty you that your hemorrhoids will be painful and bloody when this crowd is done savaging you, Mr Deep Fried Whole Hog.

Hey Cape, what did you ever do with that steel plate sarcophagus you used for that disaster anyways? If you still have it I'll take it off your hands. I'd get a great big smile on my face every time I saw it sitting in the corner of the yard.

 

[Cape Brewing]

Jeeeeeeesus Christ. It was four freakin years ago.

Get over it.

At least my pit is actually DONE and I've used it a bunch of times.

And the pig from this past weekend was tremendous so succcccck it.

[Cape Brewing]

Oh... and yes... The reason you "saw it sitting in the yard" is that I used it four days ago and it worked dead azz perfect.

So... Again... You fail
