I gathered that from another post you made.
"Once you accept that a child on the autistic spectrum experiences the world in
 a completely different way than you, you will be open to understand how that
 perspective
    is even more amazing than yours."
    To realize the value of nine  months:
    Ask a mother who gave birth to a stillborn.

I don't think I want to do any building after watching all this. Doing remodels & additions is enough for me.

 [coffee] It cooled off a little overnight!  Still going to be hot, and hotter for the weekend  8)

All this building talk makes me happy to live in a condo. I can do framing, shingle a roof, and some finish work.

It's a ton of work, and money.

The scheduling will drive you crazy. It will cost more and take longer than you think.

We're looking at modular, but we'll be doing a lot of the finishing ourselves.  I'll hang all light fixtures, local place will do kitchen & bath cabinets etc.

I remember the selection and quality in NC of modular saws quite good when I was there. I like them.

We're doing modular for the speed of setting the structure & cost.  The cost locally to build something is outrageous.  We're looking at a plan that is twice what we could do otherwise.  We'll also to a lot of the interior finishing ourselves.

Building costs are stupid.

that's why my project here is stopped . . . suddenly from $2K to $4.5K in 3 months is just too much, so I am getting the materials as money comes for it . . .
