Thread: Rural Surin just SW of Ratanaburi

You can see where they are concreted together.

Once again Uncle Sanee's tractor comes to the rescue. Notice the wood staves holding the pipes in line while covering them.

I put a rush on this job so I could use a normal toilet Now that all the plumbings done it is time to put up tiles.

No more squatting

Side doors went in

Windows, paint, trim and the vaulted ceilings make the room look bigger.

The window uniits are very heavy so the contractor needed a scaffold. My boys insist on bamboo but the contractor was squared away. They are double pane with solar glass

All of the upstairs floors are hardwood and I wanted them to look old and weathered like they been there 50 years.

No gold to be found

Windows for the bathrooms, screens are coming later.

Front is about finished, more projects ahead.

Nice look on the floor.
Who chose the blue? And the pink(?)

Deliveries start coming in for the Thai Kitchen, in our family we all come together and eat so we are always cooking. It is not unusual to have up to 12 people over eating at any given time. So we have to have room.

On the village side of the property we have picket fence.

I love the picket fence on top of the wall it's a great way to raise the height of the fence whilst looking attractive and still allowing some wind and light through.

My wife keeps going on about raising our exterior wall from 2.5 to 3.3. I don't really think it's necessary, if someone is really that keen to get over and introduce themselves to our two German Shepherds then an extra 80cm isn't going to stop them.

I had been thinking about using a wire mesh fence, which allows for air and light, but your house starts to look like a prison compound. This solution looks like a great compromise.

More plz....and the total bill is???

coming on well Carrabow

Great project - great ideas. Well done on progress to date.
