Is this where I go after removing a dead mouse from our water heater?

There was a dead mouse inside of your water heater? So you and Mrs. W have been drinking and showering with dead mouse water? :barf:

It was actually to the side of it. We looked in there, because we haven't had warm water yet to shower in for some reason. We've been drinking bottled water, so we're good there.

I didn't look inside of it. We were looking on the outside around it.  :curse:

So there was a mouse just sitting on the ground outside of the water heater and Wacky thinks that removing it gets him a handy-manness credit???? SMDH.

Anyways we found out the issue on with why we weren't getting hot water. The shower handle needs to be pointed at 11 o'clock instead of 6 o clock for it to work.  :lol: :curse:

Our neighbors are adorable. We've got a pair of partners to our left that told me they think my blue eyes are the best thing on this earth.  :love: Then across the street, we got some hoosier fan who likes to party and asked if we did too. I said yeah and he winked at me and said "good!  ;)" So either he's going to bang me or i'm about to get into some black tar kinda crap. Good times!

what are those big floaty black things, and did you buy them somewhere or fashion them yourself out of old tractor tires?

3x6x16 each with buoyancy of 1350 lbs.  Son got six of them on craigslist for a steal.

If my house starts to settle, this table will support it. Also it weighs roughly 600,000 lbs

The kreg jig was the key to the whole deal. I think it was like $99 at sutherlands and it is amazing.
Also some type of saw. My dad has an ancient montgomery ward radial arm saw that he bought at a garage sale in like 1986, but you could use a chop saw or even circular saw if need be.
Orbital sander and palm sander.
Drill and driver obvi.
Pipe clamp came in handy to keep the table top boards together during assembly.
I used 2x10 for the table top and 4x4 for the frame. It's about 46"x84"

I made the stain to make it look old and rustic. You take a clump of #0000 steel wool and put it in a jar, then fill the jar with white vinegar. After 3 days the steel wool has completely vanished. Then you strain it through a paper towel to get  the little bits out. Then take a small amount of the liquid and put it in another jar and add more vinegar to weaken the mixture, then bam you brush that ish all over your wood before applying about 3 coats of semi gloss polyurethane
