Two More

Two more walls went up yesterday. All the 2x6 walls are now in place. Today we will build the walls for the hall and take delivery of 50 sheets of drywall.


One discovery yesterday was the difference in height at different locations on the floor. Our first wall was a very tight fit, so tight it required some serious whacks with the sledgehammer to move into place. The second wall a few light taps and the third wall slid into place with just a few taps from Ben's regular hammer. Yes, a 1/4 to 1/2 inch makes considerable difference when trying to fit a wall under an existing drywall ceiling. 


Let's see what today's construction efforts bring.


Thanks for stopping by. Tomorrow I will post pictures.
