    Finish inside walls?

    I did my inside walls. I just looked at it as why put all that effort into the outside and leave inside bare. Up to the builder i guess. Also when i clean I just go along walls. No studs in the way.

    I'm not able to set posts for a run

    I started setting my post with a post hole digger and ended up on my knees with a rockbar and a trowel. I was pulling rocks out the size of basketballs. I went and rented 2 man auger from Home depot and it busted right through. Well worth the money i paid to rent it.
