Varga · 05-13-2008, 02:19 PM

stopped it at 50%, had a little heart attack, will turn the water back on in a few

picked up all valuables from the garage floor, and made a little pathway using 2x4's to the driveway.....just in case....

so far so good! no leaks and we have pressure on the top braces.
