Day 3

Today we showed up to an already half done insulation job. Adam had started earlier so by the time we got out which was 8:10, half was already done. Due to that we were able to complete the job in one day. The job was straight forward but tedious to string the insulation under all the strapping and to do this we had to where full body suits due to the hazards of fiberglass. However, we finished in just 3 hours which was quite fast. As I said yesterday this was planned to take 2 days or more. It was a fun day and tomorrow we will begin on varnishing boards.
Hours:3:00
Insulation in. 

All suited up.

Day 10

When we showed up today the project was looking really good with all the lights cut out. I began by applying joint compound (mud) the second half of the ceiling while Kevin sanded. We also cleaned up the work space. Then Garry came by and told us to clean the surrounding walls to get the room ready to begin paint. We did that and then broke for lunch. After lunch, we continued to clean and prep for paint. We also cleaned the shop floor of urethane. Today was a good day. Hours: 5:30 Total: 44:00 Second half with joint compound! The first half sanded! The first half when we left!

Day 2

Today when we showed up we started out by putting up strapping on the other half. After that, we cleaned up the job site and broke for lunch. For the afternoon session, we began staining wood. This wood will be used as trim once the sheetrock for the ceiling is up. The lights for the second half of the project also were being put in by the electrician. Tomorrow seems to be a day for insulation. The insulation will be the biggest part of the project and take many days.  Hours: 4:40 The project as it now stands.  The stained wood.  Kevin Nailing. 

Day 9

Today we started out by sheetrocking and got one more piece in. Then while Adam was cutting the next piece Kevin and I began scraping the mud off the first row. We finished that as the electrition showed up to cut out the first two lights in the first row. While he was doing that we began to apply the second coat of mud to the first row. After that, we broke for lunch. I was unable to make it back due to a race but Kevin and Adam got the rest of the sheets up this afternoon. Tomorrow we will begin mudding. Hours: 3:10 Total: 38:30 The mud all smoothed out! First two lights cut out!
