May 17th




Posted by PicasaYesterday, Mike could not work so I busied myself with various projects including making this simple rack for a few of my favourite flutes.



Today we got back to work an made great progress. We raised the big dining room window wall (mostly window, not much wall) then we put up the first of the big beams in the kitchen. This was a necessary preliminary to stacking the roof trusses on top of the beam and walls so we can begin building the interior walls.

As you can see, Mike has layed out the bottom/top plates more or less where they will be.  I cut 60 studs to 92 3/4" and tomorrow we will start framing the walls for the ground floor rooms.
