Next we start going up
At least when you got back to where you started the final bit fit OK and there wasn't a 2" gap. That says something for yours and Bob's attention to detail and precise work. A pat on the back well deserved I think.

No that’s a scaffold tower. About as comfortable as my bed feels at the moment

This may have been asked before.. is the building insulated?

Do you have an expected completion date SC?

Then things will slow down considerably and we’ll just plod on with it at a slower pace. Mostly on inside stuff until the weather improves.
Realistically we’re probably looking at 2 maybe 3 years to completion.

Bob & his brother fit most of the joists today. Still a few small ones around the loft hatch to do. I spent the day tidying up around the place.
