May 27, 2015. Building again!

   I'm back in the log cabin building mode. Yesterday I just finished installing all the outlets, light and fan switches in the house loft, and wiring in all the breakers in the loft electrical panel. I decided to install 8 angled can lights in the ceiling over the downstairs family room, and the open area in the loft. I will install them tomorrow and wire them into the electrical panel. I had  insulation people scheduled to blow corbon in the ceiling and end gables of the house and garage tomorrow, but they fell behind schedule andy will not come until Friday. Once the insulation is dry, I will install additional batting in the ceiling to meet or exceed an R value of 48.

   I ordered the ceiling tongue and groove boards for the house ceiling and the walls in the loft. The ceiling boards will be 8" and the wall boards will be 6". They should be delivered next week.

   I found the four exterior doors for the house, three doors for the loft bathroom and bedrooms, and two bedroom closet doors. I am waiting on the vendor to get back to me on prices. I will install the doors before I install the lower ceiling boards so i can run wiring through the logs to light switches beside the doors, in the log walls. I will have to drill through about 4 feet of log to complete the installation.

   I will continue posting pictures when the insulation has ben installed.

Take care, and thank you for reading my blog.
