I did a kitchen remodel in North Dallas a few years back and installed six LVL's 24 inches tall three ply by myself.
That was a lot of fun and that black insulation sucks!

By yourself?! That is impressive!

The black insulation is incredibly nasty stuff.

I didn't do it in a hurry that's for sure and I used a lot of leverage
One end of those big beams really isn't that heavy.

Spotted a decent bit of termite damage on some of the framing.

Must've been some water somewhere near where those termites were. They usually won't eat on that old long long leaf Pine Lumber, unless there's water nearby

Had to doublecheck and make sure you weren't demoing my house. All good though. I don't have double entry door.

Cleaning out the attic. Anyone ever play Pivot Pool?

Quick google search says it's from 1972.

A lot going on this morning. Framing, plumbing, HVAC.

Framers framing up new walls and replacing termite-damaged lumber. Plumbers digging under slab to make sanitary connections, HVAC roughing in.
