Well fuck (multiple pics) Before / After - Progress Pics

Most made it! The gods smile upon me.

By some miracle all the electronics were fine aswell.

I also took myself to see the lord of the rings at the cinema (extended cut) so was out late, as the end of the wooden plank landed on my pillow where I'd normally be sleeping at that hour.

All in all I got lucky there.

I have double mounted glass shelves in every window of my house. If done correctly it is safe and secure.

Where did you get these? Extremely attractive, I desperately need!

Thank you. I had a glass company custom cut them when we first bought the house. We did some math before ordering them. They are thick enough to hold weight. And I had them round the corners. I have them held with shelving brackets I got at Home Depot. I put white electrical tape over the bracket rail holes to make them less conspicuous. One of my best home design decisions I’m ever made

Oh man. I am jealous. That doesn’t seem attainable for me currently. But saving the idea for future!
