This week we learned a lot due to our time spent on this project. We started out by sanding the second half of the ceiling which was something we had done the week prior as well. This gives us a good idea of how hard it is to get a ceiling perfectly flat. After that, we painted which gave us good knowledge on this part of the construction and just how hard it is. Then putting up trim boards which was a really good learning experience for us. We were able to learn how hard it is to get these pieces right and make sure not to ding them because everyone sees the trim. This work was also fun for us to do. The trim was really fun because it is instant gratification. Getting these pieces up made an instant difference to the project. The paint was the same way it went up fast and looked good. The sanding is hard work and may have not been as much fun as the rest of the project. This week was just to finish up the work from the week prior. So whether that was painting or sanding we just needed to complete those jobs and that was the reason we were asked to them. So it was great to get in that experience well working towards a goal. I would say that there were no surprises. The only semi-surprise was that the material had not come yet for casing in the beam pushing back the project mildly but it also was not originally part of the project. We have since picked up the material we needed. These weeks activities benefited us in many ways. Honestly, one was physically sanding above the head is quite hard to do and is quite the workout. However, we also learned quite a bit about the way these projects go just by the nature of doing it. It helped us achieve all of our goals as well. We were able to gain construction knowledge help plan the trim and give back to the community. It was a successful week.
