Timber Frame Build - Round 2

[jk96]

Wow, you've been busy.

I asked about the location of the house because I've thought about a reception hall on our place. Our town could use one. But our house is here and I'm with you about having work a bit aways.

A young friend of mine just married last year. He and his wife chose a place, based on some architect's plans and not much else was even started being built. They got it for Friday, Saturday, and out by 10 am Sunday with both the wedding and reception there for a sum of $5000 (early deposit, pre-build price). His father told me on the day of the wedding, that it was now going for around $13,000.

I see they offer a Sun 10am to Mon 10am package still for $5K. Seems more couples are getting married on Sundays now.

My Saturdays filled first. Now that they are full we are booking a few Sunday's. I have a couple months that all booked. The rest have 1 to 2 Sunday weddings per month. We are offering a weekend package for our 2019 bookings Friday thru Sunday as an option.

I finished decking the outside porches today. My contractor should be here Wed to install the metal roofing. As soon as we get the metal on we can get our exterior doors installed as well. Sheetrock is also finished. We picked up paint today. Tomorrow I will move back inside to finish the inside ceilings. I am hoping by next weekend to be finished installing t&g ceilings inside, have paint done, and be ready for lighting fixtures and trim. As soon as I get all of this wood out of the building I'll have some room to get started building the bar as well.

I've done all of the t&g install myself. Subbing out the metal install. My wife and kids have been helping poly it all. Moving back inside to work on ceilings now. Only about 40% done inside.

Hopefully it's a bit warmer inside.

It is. Had one nice day outside then 20's for the rest. Got the temp at 50 inside which is a nice working temp.

Finished up the vaulted ceilings today. Really glad to be moving to the flat areas. The rest of the install should go a lot faster.

Dropped by tonight to check on the tile work for the house/bridal suite upstairs. Looks like tile is just about wrapped up. We tore out all of the old linoleum floors and replaced with tile. The fiberglass shower insert in the master bath was also removed for a tile shower as well as new tile around the bathtub.
