Framing daylight end and installed main beam, May 16 2009



Working with a very good carpenter the last two days, we framed and sheeted the daylight wall, and set main beam in place on three posts and leveled it with the top of the basement walls. We installed all the floor joist hangers to the main beam before we set it in place. On Monday we will install the floor joists and the main floor decking. We will also install 2" X 10" green board around the entire top perimeter. Then we will be ready to put the first logs on the walls. We will be digging the trench for the main electrical feed to the house next week, and installing a 200 amp panel in the mechanical room in the basement. I will then install the water pressure tank, and hook the well pump up to the electrical panel. Running water and hot showers are getting very close!
