As long as you use a decent quality adhesive and cut the studs tight to fit it's fine for interior walls. Exterior walls that's covering the foundation will have a footer underneath the slab like the posts do. Treated lumber on the bottom plate will decrease in size as it drys out so if it ain't tight it ain't right!!!!

I can make good money doing things for homeowners for 1/3 of the price. It's crazy how much someone has to pay for the simplest of tasks in the northeast.

I've never heard this kiwi comment. If a yank called you a kiwi to your face is this considered to be a racist or ignorant statement??? Does that mean NZers are fruits

It's a enjoyable thing to be able to help people that I would guess was raised or think differently about being self reliance. Myself always hated to ask for help with the day to day issues of life. Hell I still remember the day I had to get someone to come and fix my furnace because I had no clue mainly because I grew up cutting firewood for the source of heat. Did enjoy because that technician was very helpful and allowed me to pick his brain about my gas furnace. This forum has taught me a few things and allowed me to help others so hope you can find some enjoyment with it. There is some hilarious moments as well!!!!

I guess you could but a circular saw with a good blade will work just as good. Not sure what is going on with the steps design but be careful when using

I've seen issues from flooring not being able to move. It was a low quality grade of the product. Make sure since it's a kitchen to not run underneath. Kitchens are a high traffic,spills dropped items area and this type of floor is easily damaged

These pics are just allowing people to make a guess on this matter. Pictures of the actual house from outside inside, what is above this door second floor or roof structure. Even with this said no the drawing is NO GOOD. Pictures of the ACTUAL construction of the house are needed
