Today was supposed to be so simple – just mop up the last few things – but it turned into one of our very longest days. Right away in the morning, Paul, Ty, and I installed the track and trolleys for the bathroom door. They Ty and I spent some time building a small, intermediate step between the shading structure and the pavers. It really turned out nicely with everything sitting flush with everything else. Unfortunately, it’s also hard to see so Nick will be adding an aluminum angle to make it more visible.
The biggest job of the day, however, was an unexpected one. Somehow we became responsible for building two ramps between the pavers and the concrete floor. Ty and I ripped a bunch of lumber down to the proper size and then built a jig to make the angled cut. Half the boards needed some additional trimming but we managed to get them looking uniform. Then we had to cut some blocking before finally adding the OSB.
The whole process was pretty involved and not very pleasant – not the ideal way to end work on the project. But now the cabin is essentially complete and looking awesome; it feels great to have been a part of it!
