rhyno Report post Posted March 30, 2016 Very cool. Thanks for sharing. I just got some acoustic doors installed in my apartment - 40dB for all the bedrooms. These doors are HEAVY (110 pounds) and have double rubber gaskets. If you haven't looked into this, definitely do. I can basically have a party in one bedroom and not hear any noise in the other bedroom that's 10 yard away. It's freaking epic! Also consider hiring a company that does acoustic work. Small things will make a huge difference in regards to how sound is blocked/absorbed. http://www.soundproofingcompany.com/soundp...proofing-walls/ Lots of good articles about soundproofing and what needs to be done to achieve the desired results. Thank you for the tip! All the interior doors are "safe and sound" solid core doors made by Masonite Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhyno Report post Posted March 30, 2016 Looking great, congrats again! Everyone's complaining about the weather . No doubt December and January were bad, as expected; but it actually looks kind of "nice" by the local standard. This really is not bad at all. Full steam ahead. VCR is correct! We have had a very mild winter this year Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually if you keep the concrete moist whole curing it stops it from cracking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhyno Report post Posted April 8, 2016 I just noticed that monster glulam beam, are you leaving that exposed? That is a serious piece of timber! YES!!!! With the glulam beam I didn't need any metal support poles to hold up the roof. So I have a huge garage with easy access throughout Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhyno Report post Posted April 10, 2016 Forget the building, lets talk about how that affects the wine?! Ups the alcohol level normally but are your vines ok with heat? Bud break is happening right now and is about 3 weeks earlier than normal. The vines are fine with heat, anything above 35*C and then they shut down and go into protection mode. The big thing we have to watch out for is if we get a cold snap, we could get frost damage and that could kill the vines. The last few years BC has had amazing growing seasons so the wines have really been improving! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
