The past ten days have been amazingly productive...We had our first attempt at framing inspection on Monday, Oct 31. We have 12 items to address, none are significant...We plan to go for our second attempt this week, probably on Thursday..
Other notable items....
-We found a welder who fabricated the frames for the `eyebrows' that will go over our front door and dining room patio....He lives in Midtown Sacramento and does EXCELLENT work. The mounting hardware for these eyebrows has now been attached to the house.
-The `thimble' for the stove has been mounted in the living room wall. This is where the stove vent will exit the house.
-The garage vents have been installed, did you know that the building code mandates two vents in every garage?
-The door frames have all been installed thanks to Jeff's brother Scott. He is a finish carpenter that specializes in doors, he does incredible work.
-The solar electric panels will attach to jacks that were put in place this week.
-The hot water solar panels will attach to jacks that were put in place this week.
-The sky lights were installed.
-The copper piping to the hot water solar panels was soldered into place this week.
-The gutters were installed.
-The first 4 feet of the house was treated with Bora-Care to keep termites away.
-The exterior sheathing of the house was completed and the house is now wrapped in black paper.
-The Cat5 and Coaxial cable has been pulled to every large room in the house. The speaker wire, volume controls, and alarm wire is approximately half done.
-The kitchen cabinets and closet systems were purchased at IKEA.
