His floorplate is about 650 sq ft downstairs. which means its roughly 25'x25', which means its about 100' of furring wall, not to mention the walls for interior partitions. Lets say hes got another 100' of interior partition, so he has 200' total. 200 lineal feet of studed wall/8' segments = 25 segments.....25 segments x $5 per segment= $125. I don't know about you, when I do work myself, saving $125 on framing alone is a nice perk. not to mention you need less nails! theres another $5-10 bucks. hey ken0042, if you sneeze at $125, you should send some over here!
