We've begun to frame in the bay window. Martin built the west and south bay window walls inside the house. Then we dragged them out and set them up.
The hole in the south wall that we dragged them through isn't tall enough for us to drag them out standing up. Also, we are moving them out over the bulk head hole. So we have to take them all the way outside, then stand them up and lift them onto the top of the concrete wall. Don't forget, the ground is covered in ice and snow, which we don't want to drag the walls through.
We will have a window seat with bookshelves underneath.
We have the two walls wrapped and a temporary roof on.
Martin needs to build a header for the bulkhead stairs to set the next wall for the bay window on.
Also the 4 foot addition to the south wall is now sheathed and wrapped.
We will be putting in the old storm windows into the bay window temporarily until we are ready to install windows in the whole house.
