10.28.2016 - Framing Inspection!

I headed out early this morning to return 4 boxes of car parts to get core charges back and exchange the wrong parts that they sent.  Jim had to spend quite a bit of time wrapping them up - especially the calipers.

While Jim waits impatiently for the snow to melt off the scaffolding so that he can hopefully get back to working on shingles, he did more electric work.  He got the conduit that he bent previously fit into the downstairs breaker box.


He also started wiring up some outlets...

 
However, the big news of the day was the framing inspection.  After Jim talked to the building inspector, Jerry was scheduled to come out at 2:00 today.  Although we all know that Jim has done everything over and above, it's still a nerve-wracking experience.  Plus, since we are doing things so atypical, there is potentially a lot of places that an inspector could flag.  So there's some anxiety waiting for him to come.  We did a little spiffying up of the areas just for show while we waited.
 
But never fear, when Jerry came he was full of compliments with not a hint of a problem anywhere.  They spent a lot of the time with Jerry checking out some of the different building materials that we used that he hadn't seen before.  He was there over an hour and said only very positive things - nothing negative.  He said he thought we were making great progress and he was very impressed with the building.  Yay!
