Construction Week 03

We are sad to leave the air conditioned shop, but we also recognize that moving outside means substantial progress toward completing this project!  This week has been hot thought.





























Moving Day

 Hot.  Heavy.  But we got it outside, reassembled, and squared.  

















Construction Week 02

 This week we finished up framing work in the shop.  And then it was time to move outside.

Construction Week 01

We have had a busy and productive first week of construction.  Here are some progress photos.  We are probably about 80% done with the framing.

CONSTRUCTION BEGINS

Yesterday we had 3400 lbs of lumber delivered to the TEC and began construction.  We spent the first hour of class moving it all into the shop and sorting by size.  Then we had time to get a majority of the west wall cut and layed out in our first build day!  Here are a few images of the process.












FINAL DESIGN 02

Just a few more final design images to share as we wrap up the design documentation process and begin transitioning to construction.
