L2 Framing     Progress slowed a bit in anticipation of the crane.

Level 2 wall Framing. This is a different level of challenge than the framing of level 1. Nearly all walls are raked. Several are very tall.


1. Framing, anticipating the great beams
Progress slowed a bit. Putting these high walls accurately in place required care, and scaffold.

These are ready to receive the great roof beams.


2. Framing, great beams in place
Early one morning the crane arrived. It flew the great PSL's into place within 30 minutes.

3. Stair finally committed.
The chief framer "discovered" that the upper flight of stairs was 34" wide. How that happened we never determined. Several fixes were explored.

At last we agreed on the fix.


4. Growing scrap heap
It grew much larger.
