Well I had a rough day today and against my better judgment took my bad mood to the basement. Oops. Luckily, nothing was completely screwed up but I didn’t quite get my normal accuracy today.
I finished the sealing around the XPS, and started on the top and bottom plate of that wall (not stick building, also against my better judgment).
I believe I learned something today…don’t work on the basement after a bad day. Well, lesson learned. I’ll be taking tomorrow and likely the next day off to take my son to baseball practice and possibly do some homework. We should be back at it on Friday.

Oh, did I forget to mention, the yellow load was NOT enough to punch through the treated lumber and concrete. Guess I’ll be getting some red load.

Turns out it wasn’t the load but the length of the nail. Needed to go 2 1/2” instead of 3”.
