Today I finished installing the soffits on the dormers. It was very difficult to staple the soffits at the very back where the soffit meets the roof. The roof is a 9 - 12 pitch so it was difficult to stay on the roof while I was installing them.
The temperature hit 85 degrees today, the warmest day I've seen in Montana this year. Tony is back this week caulking between the logs with Log Jam.
We began in installing the decking today. It is very time consuming getting the three outer deck boards installed because we have to scribe every board and cut them out with a jig saw before we screw them down. Once the three outer boards are installed, the rest will go very fast; all we have to do is cut them to length, router and stain the end we cut, and screw them down. We will reinstall the 4 X 8 sheets of OSB on the deck top with a couple of screws to protect the surface from damage during the rest of the construction.
