   Us on dial up wont wait to let them open, for me, it'd be all night.

   Search for resize with irfanview and bone up on it, lest you miss half of your target audience.

   Why woudn't you sheath from the mudsill plates instead of making the house layers of floor , then walls , then floor etc.. Breaking plywood at these intervals looks weak.

   The basement is skinned from the mudsill over the engineered rim joist to the 3/4 on the deck.  We sheet our walls before we stand them up sometimes leaving those breaks in the sheeting.  We stood all the exterior walls in one day sheeted by 3:00,  thats the one with the gun turret.

   I see photos like this and ask....
   Why overhead utilities?
   Why OSB floors?

   On a very expensive lot on the water?

   I thought exactly the same thing...probably cause the builders can!
   Go figure...but the builder probably figures he'll get the same dough for the house no matter....If Blodgett says Tipi Tipi Tipi, it must be so!

   The houses were all sold before building even began,  the green house was actually sold again as I was putting the first set of floor trusses on it.  It sold for $ 325,000  for a 30x30 two story box with a basement and a garage.  They used every bit of space on these 3 houses they could, there is stress-con panels in the garage slab for living space underneath. 

   The homeowners all chipped in together and bought the little shack and property that was there before and flattened the house to build those 3 that you see.

   I've been trying to talk this contractor into Advantech or at least plywood for our subfloors for a while now he just doesn't want to pay extra for the stuff.   I thought the same when I got there yesterday about the overhead lines.
