Yesterday all the interior braces came down after enough of the great room roof sheathing had been applied. Today, while Delaeno & Nathan worked on tuning the mudroom roof trusses and Davis finished up sheathing the garage and installing the basement window wells, I played char-man by tossing all debris out of the house, organizing the remaining materials and sweeping the floors. In true shlepper spirit, I then cleared all of the exterior debris in anticipation of the shingle delivery and George Taplin's return to do a little more backfiling. Finally, I moved all of the studs for the loft interior walls up to that level, then finished up the master bedroom wall framing.
DND completed the mudroom sheathing and moved on to the last challenge, the kitchen trusses.
Hear no evil, see no evil, do no evil... all sitting down – up – on the job.
The arrival of the shingles signals an immanent move for me from carpentry to electrical and plumbing where, for better or worse, I'll be captain of the ship. Sink or swim time.
