This was a day of working up high in the second story of Bol's house. One crew was working on trusses inside for the dormer and finishing the framing of the second story, while the other crew was standing on scaffolding or staging to put up the sheathing (the plywood boards on the outside). A lot got done, and it was a beautiful day, as you can see from the color of the sky in the photos.
Bol is getting really good with that hammer! And Jim is as far up as he can get!
Denny did a lot of the detail work, helping us make sure we were ready to nail up each piece.
We built three levels of scaffolding on the north side of the house to put up the sheathing for the second level and the roof.
Part of the intrepid sheathing team! We became a great unit of working together with hammers, tape measures, chalk lines and many jokes along the way.
At the end of the day, here's where we ended up. And yes, I was on the top level of that scaffolding along with my Mom and Joe for the final pieces of sheathing. Yeepah!
fun to see your house come in on the skids! look forward to checking out the next posting.
