A new year, a new start..... On to getting some walls up The wall frames arrive - hurray!   Ease them down gently.  Place the extra material off to the side.  In the cool of the evening we started to lay them out in order.  Mind the pipe :-)   The youngest member of our supervisory crew - Giacomo.  Bend the knees, boys, and watch those backs.   Thanks to Adrian, Emile, Ross and Dave for their muscles.  Having fun on the new obstacle course - Thanks Dad!  An ensuite and walk-in-robe start to take shape.  The advantage of tall people - no ladder required!  Check the measurements.  Oops! No matter that we told manufacturing more than four times that the dwangs need to be at max 800mm - what do we get? .......some at 750mm and some at 850mm, and some in the correct place!  Yes- yet another frame wrong - The top and bottom plates are different lengths!   Emile liked our toys - in fact all the guys did!  Looking through the living room doorway.  Mmm mmmmm! Looking forward to the spacious kitchen.  Also looking forward to the living / dining space too!  Now that the frames are up, Paul has to put on top plates before the roof trusses arrive. Keep watching :-) Next page 08 Roof Trusses |
