My little junkhouse: Progress, not perfection :-)

For all the faults with my little junk house, I like the layout and it feels comfortable.

I have been working away on a number of projects since I got here.
I started removing walls the day I arrived.

Here is a pic of a basement room and a wall with a small workshop on the other side.

and the same view a little while later.

The start of the dump pile :-)

As I mentioned in the first post, there were some bad things hidden by a suspect bench.
Here the bench is partly removed. The bottom of the bench was actually siliconed to the floor.

After the bench was removed and all the crap put in the dump pile, this is what I had.

It has been drying out ever since, and fortunately the weather has been very dry since I got here.

A lot of the problem was poor site drainage and no eavestrough, so I installed some gutter and did a bunch of raking. Humidity in the basement was 45% this morning, the lowest I have seen it.

Here is a pic of some old school Rossland ugliness.

The old Rossland way - why use one piece of wood when you can use 10!!
A shed on a shed. I intened to take both down, so I started with the small one.
When I started to look at the bigger one, guess what I found inside?

Look at that! A sub-panel. I call it the grow shed.....
I removed the sub-panel and was about to start knocking down walls when I realized I need a shed. So the ugliness remains.

I'll wrap this one up with a before, during. The deck is stained, no freezer, no dump pile,no bin.
