Framing, sheathing, and plywood done.

I've done as much as I can on the outside.  I'm gonna hire out the roof, garage and french door installation, along with the siding.  I just want the exterior done, so I can start putting my tools on the inside.

Wall Framing Done.

The rain this morning delayed my start, but I was able to finish framing all of the walls, along with the headers for the garage and french door.

Now I just need a couple of friends to help me raise the walls and put up the rafters.

Lumber has arrived!


All the wood arrived today, so I started framing. The hardest part was setting the sill plate and finding where to drill the holes for the already installed j-bolts.  I was able to finish framing one of the walls.
