Transcript

After I build the porch, then I'm all done. My name is Bert, and I'm gonna build my house. So I'm gonna figure this all out right now. I gotta build a two by six wall here. Otherwise, there's no really way to insulate this. Because I got that furred out, and now I rank insulate it. K. So I'm to the point now where I can't go any further on this little dealio. So I'm a start sheathing some more of the roof. I'll get that all sheeted up until it comes into tier, and then that'll go over and out.
