8.28.2017

Jim worked in the morning finishing up all the shingles around the window.  This isn't a good picture but the sun was so bright I had to try and find a spot in the shade to take the picture from!  All that is left to do is put the freeze board on - he had to make a small adjustment to that - and then final painting!
 

He worked a little bit more on the corner shingles...

 
Meanwhile, I painted more shingles.
 

Making good progress back here too...



After the shingle work, we moved up into the apartment to work on drywall.  Jim had put up the last piece on the outside closet wall after I left yesterday....


Before we started on the other side of the closet, Jim gave the insulation a bit of a haircut.  It was a bit too fluffy - this was one of the very first spots we did.


Much better now...


Putting up the first piece...


Then fastening the next piece in place...


Using a cut-off, Jim got the first piece done on the closet knee wall.


Then the next piece is up in place...


...and the main closet area is done!


 
In order to work on the back wall, we moved the remaining pieces of insulation back down on the floor.  Then Jim was able to put in the last row of screws on the wall piece that was hidden by the drywall standing up.


First piece cut and putting it in place...


Fastening it....


Cutting out the window...


Next piece up and Jim is putting the screws in...


Cutting out the window on the right side...


Looks great!


Jim got the last piece cut and enough fasteners in to hold it in place.
