Today was a step towards building in NY. Jim had a rep from a building supply company come out to talk about using their insulated concrete forms for the basement walls in the carriage house. We had seen this product when we went to the home remodeling product show this winter. It has a lot of advantages - and you kind of build it like Lego blocks! There is also a good way of waterproofing it too. This guy also told Jim about a new product called Magnaboard - which is used like drywall but is much more durable...which would be great in the shop. Jim had some basic drawings to talk to and the guy went away to work on a quote.
Meanwhile, I got back to packing up the library. It's pretty close to being done now. These sure are beautiful shelves but they look sad and lonely with no books on them. And I have to admit it makes me sad to see it empty - I've loved every moment spent in this gorgeous room.
Jim went back to work at the door factory. He has to do a lot more manually - like putting the pegs in the doors. But they look great and he's almost done with them!
Radon update...we are down to 2.8 now!!
