Baseboard outlets completed, June 14, 2013

   I'm still waiting for the log hauler to free himself up to bring my logs down. I went up two days ago and cut them all to 40 feet.

   Yesterday I was trying to finish the baseboard outlets, but I ran out of wire at 6:00 PM. Everything in Butte closes at 6:00 PM. I picked up the wire this morning and finished the last outlet and wired the circuit into the main panel. I also picked up a 3 foot, 220 volt baseboard heater and thermostat and installed them in the mechanical room. Heating the 10 foot by 10 foot room last winter with a ceramic heater was getting a little expensive, plus the baseboard heater should be much more reliable.

Main floor baseboard outlets, June 10, 2013

   Today I finished chiseling out and shaping the rest of the baseboard outlet box mounting holes on the main floor. If I don't haul logs tomorrow, I will stain the raw wood you see around the boxes, and begin running the electrical wire. I think peeling logs is easier than chiseling these holes. This was all sitting down and laying on your side work. Not real comfortable, but it's done!
