How to measure a day . . .

No nails, or hours or scratches, or cuts of wood can today measured in but the hard work from everyone putting in more then enough time to make sure that everything is exactly correct to the 1/16th of an inch.

 

In the past couple of days things have been moving on fairly quickly, we are ahead of schedule and keep on cruising.  Thus far we have all four walls up and almost completelysheathed, just a few parts at the way top left to do.   The inside North and East walls are framed and the framing for the bathroom is complete as well.  The greatest achievement for the day would be place and securing the main top beam for the roof structure.  I started this morning placing sheathing on the West side wall with Brittany, we completed as much as we could do while on the scaffolding but the cabin is higher then both of us can reach even with added high.  Then we moved on to cutting the 2×8 for the loft floor.  After having a great lunch under a neat by tree we got right back to it, working on the interior framing for the East side wall, and finishing the day off with the framing for the bathroom.  The day has been one of the longest thus far but definitely did not feel like it since everyone was busy on the tasks that needed to get finished.  Now we can get a good start on the things that we need to do for tomorrow.
