mr. gorbachev, tear down this wall!
this is the weekend of wall destruction. the existing drywall in the main area is about 80% removed. part of the concrete block between that room and the garage has been removed to make a doorway.
i've also started pulling out all the electrical wiring in the room. found more crazy shit. there was a junction box which had wires running into it and everything, but they neglected to cut out a hole for the receptacle when they put the drywall up. so if we hadn't pulled down the drywall, got only knows how long it would've stayed buried behind the wall like that.
i also discovered that part of the wiring for the space was done with 4-wire. why, i have no clue. so in a bunch of junction boxes there are these spare red wires. sometimes they're tied together with a wire connector, other times they're just curled up inside the junction box.
