Waiting on a walnut log for the mantel, then I will seal the hearth and do the grouting. Not a bad days work, very satisfying.

I try to stay in my lane, but every now and again a great customer talks you into some additional work.

First sampling of the millwork. Arts and crafts style in red oak finished with hand rubbed black walnut danish oil. 5/4 headers and plinths, with 3/4" thick casing and 5 1/2" x 5/8" chamfered top baseboard.

Started this week with unique porch project. There was a large area to cover outward with very little height or reasonable spot to attach a traditional porch roof. This was what I came up with for the client. It will get fully covered with metal roofing and trims to closely match the existing structures on the property. With gutters being added to the cabin roof eave it should be nice and dry.

Just finished up a simple deck project for a park model cabin. Need one more deck board to wrap it up because we added one more step to make the stairs more comfortable.

KDAT brown treated decking and framing with Westbury aluminum railings.

Started a basement finish. Rough framing mostly complete. There was a lot of obstacles to work around with the mechanicals, and the columns. Riser platforms for the theater seating, 3 rows starting at ground level. Acoustical ceilings everywhere besides the bathroom and theater room.

Up next is electrical and plumbing rough-ins and I will be back to do sound channel, sound insulation and hand the drywall.stic
