trying to get my new building buttoned up.

Hoping today to get at least the roof boards on and a layer of tar paper for water protection.
Next will be hanging the 3 doors, painting and hanging all the precut trim. Then cut out the holes and
install three windows. One on each side of the side door and an octogan above the double doors.

Here is another shot.

The rain has been relentless. Every since the day we poured the slab I cant seem to sync up my time off with a
day that is not raining or 90% humidity!

My girls have helped me a ton!
Its been a family project.

Weather is going to cooperate Lance. the 36hours of rain that was to start at 3am Sat. is now 4 or 5 hours starting around 11am, then more Sunday. We are close to double our June rainfall.

Well Saturday was a total wash. But Sunday we were able to get half of the roof on.

All the "trim" is just tacked up for placing the sheeting. We will be pulling it all down, painting the building and trim separate, then adding the trim. Much easier then cutting in.

Looks like you are having fun Lance! I am suffering the same rain setbacks with my home projects this year. We seem to be in the same rain pattern. Clear one day, then rain every day for a week then another clear day. I'm so tired of getting tools out then packing them up quick to avoid the deluge. We had a little work time today until noon but now it is raining again. gaah

Exactly! Then add to that, trying, hoping that the nice weather alines with the days off work.

UGH! [headinwall]

We had 63mm of rain on Saturday, but it was beauty on Sunday. I consider us lucky, as the forecast was for rain all day Sunday as well.
