Eaves, stairs and general progress

This week has seen progress on a number of fronts.  Had the builder back and we put up some eaves.  This also meant that I had the electrician wire up for the outdoor lights to be fitted.

Whilst the builder was on site we fitted the circle window in Kylie's studio and fitted some internal cavity sliding doors.  Now I just have to work out how to make straw bales curved.  We also have scaffolding back on site to help finish the higher bits of the straw walls.

We also had the stairs delivered and fitted.  Kylie and Lily are very happy now as they can both get to the guest area without using a ladder and squeezing between studs.  I am really happy with how the stairs have come up, they will match in with the floor very well.  The tops of the stairs in the photos are MDF which will be taped on to protect the treads whilst the rest of the build goes on.

This week should see the plumbers back to start with some of the external plumbing work, which will include the destruction of Mt Dunn and Mt Smith, as all of the excavated soil is placed back around the house.
