Progress on the "closet"

The closet is moving along. We put up the siding , which is a matter of measuring where each piece goes. The angles are a bit tricky but are done by measuring each sides length from the bottom of the tin piece to be but up. Then a line is drawn between the 2 measurements . We have cut the tin by hand, which is very difficult and not very accurate and by an old saw blade mounted so it turns the opposite direction. This has worked very well but we always wore our safety glasses, ear muffs and scarfs around our hair because the metal bits will fly!





We attached a 2X6 over the door so the porch rafters would attach to the building. This allows flashing to be installed to create a water proof connection between the porch and wall.


This is how it looks on the inside after the siding was installed.
