Making Cabinets
Where to put them until we’re ready to install is kind of an issue.
Roof Trusses
Walls
I was right, we do get walls on the second story. That’s good. It’s a long fall when you’re stumbling around in the dark and mis-step.
It’s hard to take good pictures of framing. When you see it first hand, you can tell where walls and doorways are going to be and the house starts to come together in your head. In a picture, though, it just looks like a bunch of sticks. So trust me here, that’s a bathroom doorway and a bedroom doorway and the landing at the top of the stairs. I know it just looks like firewood, but add a little drywall and paint and it’ll be an actual room. Pretty sure we get a roof too.
Tile
Enough for a walk in shower, at least.
It’s not our forever roof
It stops a majority (50.1%) of the rain over that part of the addition, though.
Closet
The upstairs closet will have more storage space than all the closets and storage areas in the existing house combined.
These will be drawers
Stairs
Inky was so happy about this.
You know it was a wild party when…
Yes, they used a 2×4 for the ridge beam, but the house has stood this long hasn’t it?
