Ok ok... well it has been a little while and a bit has happened. Sorry to all. Today i celebrate my first arch door way... who would have thought geometry would be useful : ) I think it has turned out pretty awesome. Also you can see that i have finished all the framing and insulating is nearly done. Next is putting the plasterboard up!!!! man it has gone quick.

Also I have purchased a heat transfer unit... been a little of a fiddle but it will take the air from the top of the roof and pump it into the bedrooms at the end of the day during winter. awesome. the ducting only just fits in my raked ceiling so i cannot insulate around it any more then what is around the ducting already. Oh well there was no other way.

OH also on monday we picked up 36 wooden apple crates to make our bookshelf out of!!! very excited about that one.

enjoy the pics...

Stud work up stairs!!!

latest update

Hi guys!!

I know it has been a little while but i have been cruising, since we have more space some of the urgency has gone out of what i do. But this week i started the upstairs!!! i am so very very very very excited about this. For me it is going to be the most exciting part of the house. Over the last few weeks i have tried my hand at plastering. I did a good job on the joins but the corners... i need to keep working on it. I actually want to do more however the problem is that i don't have any place to practise.

my first plastering job... the cupboards

Didn't take long for heather to fill them up

Door way at the end of the hall.... laser levels rock. Beyond that door is the construction zone.

YEA! i have started the second story FINALLY

I hope to build a big book shelf out of these stacked up. Should be interesting.

Girls room now finished.

Shed bites back

My third toe on the right foot didn't look right so after an xray etc it has a fracture. Not to bad just needs to be strapped. 2 weeks? Real pitty as I was ready to install my last skylight. I guess it can wait.
