Buildlogue #30 The Writing On The Wall

For those readers who may have been getting a bit bored with the construction details of the build, here are the latest pictures of progress to date. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so here are 4,000 words for this post…

(Above): The carpenter’s calculator: batteries not included. Quite obviously he needed to do a little subtraction calculation.

walls1
(Above): A view of the sitting room from the bedroom.

walls2
(Above): The view of the bedroom as seen from the sitting room. On the right is the bathroom door (closest), with the dressing-room / walk-in cupboard at the ladder.

walls4
(Above): Once all the taping of joints in the Gib partition board has been completed, followed by the skimming and sanding down, the painting can start. Two colours, namely Cutty SarkTM and AshantiTM are under consideration. On an interesting technical point, in the fine-print section of the Resene colour chart, I read, “Unauthorised use of Resene colours and colour names breaches Resene’s copyright and trademark rights.” I acknowledge that the above is merely a copy for my readers’ information.
