So I'm finally a proud homeowner after moving out of the 'rents' house about 10 years ago. After 3 years of living in military dorms, 2 years of roommates, and 4 more years of living in base housing by myself, I got tired of pissing my money away with nothing to show for it.

Rather than clog other threads with my photos of my progress, I'd rather just make a thread for it, and talk about my experiences with tips and tricks for others who are interested.

I'll be splitting this into multiple phases with posts for each, and updating accordingly.

Phase 1: Floor Sealant
Phase 2: Wall Paint
Phase 3: Shelving/Workbench
Phase 4: Lighting
Phase 5: The Little Things (details, random stuff)
Phase 6: ???

Not yet dammit, we still need to fix my brakes later tonight! You can do whatever you want after that :icon17:

I should have told you to text me when you made it home, so I know you didn't die.

As long as you ge the bleeding kit, we'll be good. Doing that **** in the dark is...less than enjoyable. And also getting myself covered in brake fluid, YET AGAIN.

Yeah I thought about texting you too when I got home, but I thought you would be passed out by then so I didn't want to disturb you.

Yeah I'll pick up the bleeding kit on my way home from work today. I didn't go to bed till like 1:30 last night and ended up coming to work almost an hour late. It's ok though, we usually start everything here an hour late on Mondays anyways. I won't be getting off till 5 so I'll probably be at your place around 6:30 or 7.

Btw, that kit looks identical at any Autozone/Advance, really - little plastic bottle w/ a magnet on it. GET THE MAGNET ONE lol.
