open concept, but let's see what kind of openings we find here. What do you have here, Ken? Well, by the way, this is Ken. We have n't officially introduced it yet. Ken is the new, uh, assistant here. He is here for me to answer. Ken has been in the industry for 30 years. He knows what he's doing, and, uh, I'm here to learn from him, and he's here to help me, and we're here to just be a good old-fashioned happy family. That's right. Learn from him too, because you can never not learn from someone. Someone will always teach you something. I agree, dude. There is always something to learn. So, Ken, we want to implement an open concept. I know it was a laundry, in my opinion. We can move this to the washer and dryer in the garage. It's tomorrow. Alex's problem. But what do you get from just opening this thing up as much as possible? Hmm, I think it's not the bearing, just because you can still hear the vibrations. Usually, if it's a bearing, it will be harder. Not always, because we will still go up to the attic and, of course, check. But good point. You know, these structures are loose- fitting, so we can open them up here so your refrigerator is here. Good. Or part of the pantry, a larger pantry, and also some space here . Or also access to that front room, that living room, or whatever they call it? Living room. Living room. Yes, I think you're right. I think this is the best case scenario. I would like to get rid of all this, but here we are dealing with carrying capacity. Yeah, but it's a cool little trick. I never really thought about just giving it an old kick and seeing what happens. Masters teach me this. So, as you can hear, something is wobbling. It's solid as a rock. So, it carries something. You could see the top plate crossing it. In any case, I bet it's probably a wall. I don't know. We'll see. She holds. Yes. Is something like that possible? But I like what you think. If we get rid of this little section here and move all of this, open this up and get rid of this, we'll have a much bigger opening to the next room. Yes. We can even divide it or just leave one big hole. But ideally, hopefully, we can still do it. Lower it there like a big old beam, and then hang it up. Yes. Whatever we had to do, climb in there and jack up the wall , and it would be perfect. So, in the meantime, yeah, let's start knocking out some of this drywall and see what we see here. This is
