Bruce doing the work himself greatly off sets the costs of material. He is gaining more equity then what the little extra he might be spending on material. In my area lumber and material aren't high as they were the last 4 years and a lot of the goods are at pre covid time.

Got my stairway finished

Awesome work, Bruce! Great progress pix, enjoying this…..

Looks good Bruce.

That is a real nice stairway and door frame, will you have a door?

Thanks.No door.Leaving it open.

Ran the wires today and put insulation In two of the lower walls.

Exciting times and things look good.

What kind of celling product are you doing on celling? Knotty Pine Etc.?

Rough cut wide pine boards when I get them, but just insulation for this year.Amish cut them in the winter time.

Hey Bruce, are your walls 2x6 studs?

How thick is that R30 insulation?

9.5 inches.Ceilngs are 2x6.Walls are true 2x4's.I split the insulation in half for the walls.

Ok that makes sense! Thanks!
