Thanks Bigfish....I like to get away from the jobsite and do work like this in my shop. No plumbers, electricians, painters, tile setters....
I'll go back in a few days to install the columns which will cover structural 6x6 posts in the great room.

Thanks Trevier....I am enjoying my work more than ever, even with the early stages of arthritis starting to make it painful.
Nothing I do ever comes out perfect......I always see something that could have been better.

having done houses from 2k sqr ft all the up to 8k sqr ft I've seen alot of trimmed out houses. I always liked doing trim, always inside, heat is one. But it can get crazy with people in the way, especially doing stairs.

I started out my career framing condos on the cape back in the early seventies. Worked outside every winter, and very close to the water, so wind was a big factor too. The guys I worked for were some real hard ass rednecks, we still worked when all the other crews pulled the job when it got too cold for them.

I have a lot of redneck friends nowadays......not that there's anything wrong with that.
