Hard to believe it's Halloween - but hope it was a safe and fun one for everyone! We don't get trick-or-treaters at the apartment but we got to see lots of ghosts and goblins on the way home!
Jim was hard at work this morning - he did the insulation around the doorframe in the wood shop and then attached the drywall that had just been leaning against this wall. He also started stuffing some of the very tops of the walls with insulation - our next section to drywall in this room will be the opposite wall where the attic entry way is. Jim wants to get that access door closed off before cold weather.
Speaking of that, he planed down some of the wood that he bought from the lumberyard. It really looks nice - very clear pine. He plans on using this wood for door jambs/frames.
He put up more corner bead in the kitchen...
Then in the afternoon, it was time for more drywall in the living room. Jim had to take turn the power off and take apart receptacles before we could start. We had to use 12' foot pieces here so they are definitely difficult to maneuver!
But it's up in place and Jim is fastening it down...
Then the last piece on this wall section...
Jim had to put up a little soundproofing in this last cavity and then we got the first piece on this front wall up into place...
Switch box is all cut out and Jim is fastening...
Cutting out the door...
The living room is looking great!
Last piece of drywall for the day - this corner in the kitchen is the last remaining piece of 5/8" drywall for the outside walls!
