Closing in

Three walls went up this week.  Left is the wall between the main building and the screen porch.  The opening is for the door.  The wall on the right has openings for windows in the dinning room and library.

Inside view of the screen porch door and dining room window.

Most of this missing wall will be windows.  The rough openings will be built after the rafters are in place.

The two ply beam is bolted to the post.  Next week a crane will lift the rafters on the beam.  Bolts shown are temporary -- still sourcing nicer hardware.

Here's a short video of the planer at work preping the timbers that will be the rafters:
