Jim continues to do some plumbing work in the morning. He's still not happy with the shower valve so he took the whole thing apart today. He's going to leave everything set up before doing any testing.
He routed out the bottoms of the corner molding to fit over the ledger board and got that area primed. At the end of the day, he painted the gray so that he can work on putting them together in the morning.
We had discovered that we had a bulge in the plywood sheathing at the back corner. Before we put siding on it, Jim wanted to get it flat.
So he made a cut through the plywood...
Then drilled holes...
...and fastened it together with screws. You can see how flat it is now.
Then a little repair work on the house wrap and it's all fixed!
Jim spent more time on scaffolding today - he put up another section on the farthest tower. We also went up to our stash and got another plank for him to use.
Then it was back to siding...
You can see that the siding is done now underneath the window and Jim is measuring for flashing.
Cutting the shingle to go around the window...
Flashing is done and installed and starting to put up shingles...
Making good progress so time to rearrange some platforms...
End-of-the-day picture...almost to the living room window!
Jim switched gears at the end of the day and did some car work - he got the power steering pump out of the 4Runner so good progress there too.
