But it looks like a pretty snug place to work in, right? This was taken in January 2012.
Much of the next...maybe...6 weeks was spent finishing most of the interior framing. The load bearing interior framing had already been done (seen in an earlier post). So this was just partitions bearing no load.
Here you see the arch over the stair--this was actually Jeb's idea, when we were sitting around wondering how to cut this out of the SIP so we'd stop bumping our heads on it.
This is a little farther along. About 85% of the interior framing is done--the partition walls--and so begins what I would come to term the "10-50-90 Rule". Much of the next year would be devoted to the fine work of installing wiring (Julie shown admiring our work in the master bath here), plumbing, and cabling for network, TV, etc. What's the rule? It goes like this: these installations are 10% of the mass of the house, 50% of the cost, and 90% of the time!
Of course, that's not all we did for the next year, and in coming posts we'll document other things we did to move the house closer to being a house we can live in.
