We took some time off building the house today to work on an addition to a house in a gated community.



Doesn't really look like much moving from one picture to the next, but it was a solid day's work building the supports and hoisting those trusses up there. I'm getting a lot quicker reading the tape measure and using the power tools is less exciting--except for the ramset, this gun that looks exactly like Princess Leia's laser gun and uses .22 blanks to fire a nail into concrete with a satisfying kick and a loud pop. After each shot you shake it once vigorously and the shell pops out. Clearly the coolest tool in the framers arsenal.
