I was finally able to finish framing the basement over the weekend. Friday night involved me framing a bathroom wall and installing the shower. On Saturday, I was able to finish framing the bathroom/laundry room and, with the help of a friend, the family room.
So what’s next in my basement adventures? Well, I need to get everything inspected but before that, I have to wire all of the outlets, lights, switches, etc.
A few years ago, I was fixing a Coke machine. Actually, I had already fixed it but as I was removing my hand that was holding a metal multi-tool from the machine’s innards, I bumped a wire that apparently wasn’t fully connected and ended up getting a pretty good shock. It wasn’t 911 bad but it was bad enough that I got knocked to the floor and my arm hurt for a week. Ever since then, I’ve been a bit wary of electricity.
