Awesome Edwort!
You know how much we all wish we could be there to help. I can't wait to see the final product. I see you have added a front porch as well!

EdWort, i'm kinda disappointed! If you watch the construction workers here in Germany, they always have a beer in one hand! To shame, to shame.
It's looking great! Can't wait to see all the Bayerische garb you'll be putting up. Ein Prosit to you Sir.

I don't think so. It's just wet in some places. I'll know more later this morning after I head out and start uncovering things. I'm waiting for another hour or so till the radar shows the rain moving off.
More work today! I'd like to get the shingles on, Tyvek wrap it, and most of the siding today. |

Nail guns are amazing. The nails go in so fast, the boards don't have a chance to move. I hate toe-nailing by hand.

Yeah, you need 3 hands or a clamp sometimes.
It's raining cats & dogs right now. Oh well, I guess every construction job has to deal with it sometimes.
