Well, it has been sometime since my last post. You'll have to forgive me as I have been very busy. I'll try not to let that hinder my blog. The mini-shop has had quite a few changes, I've also made progress in the sliding shop cabinet project.
Blue Birdhouse Project.
On Saturday, I got sidetracked as I helped my father build and complete two cedar birdhouses for his home. What was expected to be a simple Saturday morning project put up a little fight and took longer than expected. But what matters is that we built two of them and they are good to go. They are pending being mounted to a few of the tall fence tops which should be a perfect place for them.
Mini-Shop
We began the layout of Phase 2 for the Mini-shop this past Saturday. First, we positioned and buried the three support columns that will hold up the South end of the roof, the North end of the roof will be attached to the South wall of the Mini-shop. The North end of the roof will be supported and held up using Simpson rafter ties. After setting the three support columns in concrete, we continued Sunday to put up the rafters and roof sheeting. All that remains now is the lattice wall that we'll put up on the west wall of it, tar papering the roof, installing the roof shingles, and wiring a light fixture and outdoor socket for electrical accessibility.
I want to see pictures of the blue birdhouses!!!
