Panel progress

Well the bumpout is going very smoothly so far.  They got the panels all boxed out, the MDO all cut to approx size and pre-primed.  They have to fussy cut the MDO to install it next but I’m impressed by one day of progress.  The goal is to get this part of the bumpout finished, leaving the high part for later (caps and the peak).  Next they’ll work on the cupola panels as well as siding the backside.  Once the backside is sided they will move the pump station over to the bumpout so they can do the caps and peak with that.  The staging will get moved to the roof for the higher part of the cupola.  I think it’s a good plan.  Hopefully our attic windows come soon (due some time next week), because they will be ready for them by then for sure unless it rains a lot.

Panels all framed out, all the way up. It’s hard to see but there are 3 rows of boxes between the windows. Next up will be MDO to put in the flat sections.

It was hard to get a picture of the sides, but I like how the thin vertical section will still have 3 boxes to match the other sections.

They rebuilt the structure and patched in the bottom of the soffit nice and tight and puttied it up. Looks great. Scraping has moved around to the bumpout portion now. Coming right along!

They are waiting on paint until they see some good dry days which makes sense.

Also they did 2 dump runs and a recycle run and the yard doesn’t look too bad.
