Framing
Immediately after the foundation was done, the framer came in to chalk lines and get going. We've had
some dry weather, so we can get wood down the hill, and the guys are working hard.
These first images are framing up the basement and foundation walls. So
the tops of these walls will be the floor of the house.
Finally we connect the two halves of the house together with the breezeway
Three Simpson strong walls - I guess this is where we're supposed
to be if the big one hits
This is the first bridge on the property; there will be three
when we're done. The blocks show the placement of the windows
First walls up were Gwen's studio
Coming up to the front door
Dave's garage going up!
Suddenly the house looks huge
Really big crane, we need about 200ft of reach from the road to the house.
Using the sky hook to drop the trusses in place!
