Framing New Walls and Plumbing Rough-In

Well, here we are. Okay, so we're going to put up a dividing wall here. No more pocket door. Base plate always has to be pressuret treated in case there's flooding. We're going to throw this down. We're going to use a combination of the 3/16 uh concrete bit. We're going to go through the bit and we're going to use our concrete screws. Anchor this down. And then at that point, we can start putting our studs up. So, I got all the 2x4 studs that I need. These things are solid going forward, but you know, there's a little flex. You stabilize them by putting a little uh blocking, [clears throat] I think it's called. Um, so we're just going to put a couple of scrap pieces. All right, one wall's up. Let's make the partition for the toilet. Remember how I said we had heated tile? I have to put anchors into the concrete. And I have a spot right here that has a loop-de-loop and then a spot right there that has a loop-de-loop. When you create a separation here, you have to anchor it into something so it doesn't wobble out. [music] So today is what? Day three. Plan is going to be to do some plumbing. Here's what we're working with. Everything's on that side. So now we have to basically rewire things where or replplum things where the water lines will come here and up. Uh and the drain will do the same. First thing we got to do is shut off the main water line that comes in the house. Just because the system is pressurized, there will be a little bit in there. [laughter] I'm going to drill holes that are with the spade bit um around to feed our new lines here. Same. All the way in. Oh, I see. All the way in. Yep. Push it all the way in. How far? All the way till it stops. And then [music] twist. Done. Slide all the way in without turning. and then turn half turn. I have to kind of make my own little utility box. So, this will be own little fake pony wall. Those water lines are running through it. The drain is running through it. And then you're supposed to have a water shut off valve because the water lines are running inside the wall. So, you're going to have a little utility box to access. These lines are just going to drop in here. And then that way you can have a little access box. You can turn it on and turn off in case there's an emergency. All right, let's turn on the water line and see if uh we made [music] mistakes.
