3D!

Did I mention that I'm really happy I hired a builder?
I'll be heading to Tidaholm, where Treesign is located, next week, to deliver some building materials and check out my build. Looking forward to it :-D

Dreaming of future patios. And, a subfloor!

Today I didn't do any constructing, but I did do some amassing and deconstructing. I picked up my second load of free used deck planks. They needed some nails removed but that I did in the sun with Clara who was giving them away. It was nice chatting with her while we worked. Before that I spent a bit of time relaxing in the sun in the used hammock I picked up for my future patio space. While all that was going on the Treesign crew were putting my subfloor together!

The work begins...

Well, the hands-on work that is. I've been doing a ton of planning work, designing, researching. But it's something else to start doing concrete building work, makes things feel very real. I put together a couple of extremely sturdy workbenches with pallets, and a little workstation inside my big storage shed. And today I started to round off the edges on the boards that will be interior siding with a router. This space was intended to be garden tools storage + walk-in cooler for my veggie growing business, but since those plans went a bit sideways now it has become an awesome place to keep all my building materials. And now it's also housing my workshop :-) Fabian and his crew started their work yesterday, they begin with making all the cuts for the frame. Hopefully I'll get an update with photos soon. For now here's a look at my work space:
