South Wall Framing


Framing for the South wall is done, which includes a new sill plate. The opening on the right will be the front entry way. On the left there will be a window. Both will be as before, but with a far more substantial wall to surround them. The pile of wood in the foreground is the original siding, which we're going to put back on the house. We'd originally thought we'd do all new siding, but opted for reuse instead. We will be mixing some newly milled siding in since we won't have enough of the original stuff to cover the house. Since you can't get siding like this anymore, we have to have the milling knives specially made.
