It's nice to finish something
The second floor now has a ceiling.
The second floor needs drywall, trim around the windows, the 4" floating floor and we're good to go. On the inside, at least.
Tomorrow we'll try to get the ceiling in the stairwell done. We'll spend more time setting up the scaffolding than actually installing the T&G. Then it's on to the entryway and the south side of the house.
We had 370 16 ft pieces of tongue and groove pine delivered and so far 80 of them have been culled due to poor quality. Once we go through the pile, we'll send the culls back and get prettier ones. There's a limit to how many knot-holes a person should have to see in a day.
According to everyone, all the good wood goes "south of the line". Everyone, except those who believe all the good wood is long gone.
