Internal and external cladding underway.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve been working on this project about a week now. I still feel pretty shitty after the most recent Covid jab. But I think I\u2019m gradually improving. And getting out to do a shift yesterday was, despite my fears, good. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today I\u2019m doing a slightly longer shift. I\u2019m also expecting some thin sheets of balsa, from Amazon, to arrive some time today. When they do, I can start cladding the internal and external wall of the art studio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the main effort today, despite the aforementioned cladding, was putting sheets in the roof. Jeez\u2026 roofing is hard! Both on models, and real buildings. I know, \u2018cause I\u2019ve done both. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The roof was a bit of a nightmare, to be honest. And is far from perfect. But never mind. It is what it is. And it serves as a salutary reminder, if\/when I transition to doing a real build, to put a lot of time and effort into getting the roof right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The last thing I did, before turning in for the night, is the feather-edge style \u2018shiplap\u2019, pictured at the top of this post. There remains plenty more of that to be done. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
