Ok. It's the man's dough. He has the right to ban and unban (Lol). But I hope he has not also banned the numbers that we have been waiting anxiously for. |

Last post December 7. I hope this thread stays alive to a logical conclusion. I'm still waiting for the numbers though. |

Sorry guys, I have been away from class for way too long. I had a tough time trying to play catch-up. Like Fhemmy said, our good teacher should please try and find time to do us financial update on this mansion. That cool temper of yours, Spyder, please how can I get a chunk of it? You are indeed a great person. I will call you soon. |

The way these walls are designed I can foresee some special kind of painting or screeding here |

spyder880: My client has asked that I think of fence designs for this mansion, and I am going to show 7 designs... please keep your eyes on the fence, not the housesThe fourth one is my number 1 choice. Very elegant. But come o, does electric fence work when there is no direct power to it? Just curious, remembering that this is Naija. |

Fhemmmy: Thanks for the explanation, Fhemo. Spybot leave our dear Spyder alone o. There millions of others that over-deserve banning on NL, not our correct teacher and mentor |

prince_onx: Hope my fellow builders/students who are casting or planning to deck are not expecting a smooth finish like the pictures above with used plank? E no go dey smooth like this Spyder work oh! U go use 6 bags of cement where Spyder will normally use 5 bags to make ur work neat and smooth. Really? Is it because the planks having been used before have soaked water and lost its firmness? Or is there any other technical reason for this phenomenon? |

spyder880: Even from the little gaps widening slowly between the wood and the concrete, you can tell the side boards are due to come off. Water and oil don't mix na. Even the wood know say im no be mate with concrete. Awesome casting you did here. |

Juwonb007: New semester starts on 5th of August irrespective of students' status (if the time table is to be followed to the latter). I'm sure you are new. Shifting a few courses forward maybe for technical or whatever reason is very much different from what used to obtain in the past when actual dates earlier fixed for commencement of resumption, registration, exams, etc would be shifted sometimes indefinitely. |

spyder880: That's PH's artisans for you. Most of them are merely after the quick cash. Quality jobs and customer retainer-ship for them take the back seat. |

spyder880: I am wondering which part of city to look for well finished qualities of these items in Port Harcourt? There are very many of them very close to you there. Just along that G.U.Ake road,before you get to Ikwerre road T-junction, the area opposite OPM. I see so many of the makers around there. You may want to stop by and confirm the quality/price. Are you back from Coal city? |

maximunimpact: @Maximumimpact is right. Shifts in exam time table and other deadlines used to be a regular attribute of NOUN prior to the release of the current timetable. It should be noted that it has been followed to the letter right from release. It makes sense then for every student to be prepared and keep working hard instead of living under the probably illusive consolation that exam date would be shifted. 1 Like |

spyder880: As at now, the total money spent building this house stands at So if we speculate the next floor walling to gulp 1.5M, it will amount up to about 8.8M, without roofing. Parapet never join o! I see why everyone was screaming Impossibility! at the initial estimate. I know that that soil type really shuffled feathers. But wait o. We wey pocket no deep go fit build betta duplex wey dey hungry us so? Ultimately Spydo, you have really tried. Bravo! |

spyder880: I am leaving PH this morning to return to Enugu for a break/waiting for the deck to cure for some days. Ideally, how long does it take for a concrete deck like this to cure? I've heard people say 30 days. Is that standard duration? Enjoy your break. |

brabus: Nice one my Oga by the side. Hopefully before your return, we'd have poured the slab of the Chateau. Bos, we had a little email conversation going about design, and you promised to revert. I no come dey hear from you again. I know say schedule tight but you for still try na |

spyder880: We are already moving ahead to select the roofing sheet color. This is the high quality Gerard roofing product (Wichtech brand) roofing shingles. This is a sample of how the roof will look like. Waoh! This colour of Wichtech is simply awesome. I'm so used to seeing the black colour. Nice. |

You simply typify the reason why no one should ever complain of lack of job or unemployment, no matter how politicians mess things up. When you painstakingly pick something you are passionate about and do that thing with with integrity, goodwill and dedication, no force in this world can stop you from being sought after. 2 Likes |

^^^^ Didn't I tell you, Spyd? You better think of relocating to PH o, cos I foresee a time you will be shuttling between 5 to 6 sites to monitor projects. Gird yourself, man. |

Spyd, I hope you are enjoying your stay in PH because, quote me on this, you may stay longer than you thought. Mark my words. |

chei: I heard he graduated with a 3rd class?I wouldn't be surprised. If you see him speak you will tell. Just goes to show "book knowledge does not always translate into money knowledge". I really like the guy sha |

^^^ @ megainvest. You have raised some valid points and I bet you if Spyder gets to read your post, he will certainly respond and educate us some more. He has always done that. The problem with all4naija's post is the way he went about it. First he started with outright condemnation and casting aspersion. It took someone else to remind him that instead of the doom-saying he should have politely pointed out what are the things that are so terribly wrong with this building, for him to write again and made an attempt at pointing them out. I agree completely that in a forum like this, different people will always have differing viewpoints, but for Christ's sake we can be more polite, civil and respectful of others when writing. Can't you spot the difference between your 'tone' of writing and his? Ouch! I just did what I really hate to do. Derail an interesting thread. Apologies. 2 Likes |

My brother I have never seen anything like this o. Ever since Spyder mentioned the estimated amount for building the carcass of this mansion, people have been overdosing themselves with Panadol Extra for another person's minor headache.Is Spyder a novice in this thing that he wouldn't know how to cost his projects? Reactions like this could make a builder hold back a lot of vital info from those of us who are eagerly learning and then the learning would be adversely impacted. If Spyder is a greedy type, he can even begin to skin clients alive with unnecessarily high quotes. mufutau55: 4 Likes 1 Share |
