Friday 3:00 PM and we run out of plaster.
This was probably for the best because I think today was finally the day I was going to pass out from heatstroke.

So Close...

More walls are plastered and the drywall work has begun. Is there really and end in sight?

























Leichtes Erschrecken bereiteten uns während der Putzarbeiten die zischenden Geräusche im Inneren des Stromkastens. Aber das Ergebnis ließ dies schnell vergessen.

Das Ende ist in Sicht.

The Beginning of the End?/ Der Anfang des Endes?

Today we started to plaster over the holes and skim coat the walls, so that there will be a uniform surface to paint.

Also notice that the breaker box has its cover back on - a sure sign of progress.

The Last of the Paneling/ Die Letzte der Panele

Today we removed the last of the paneling. The small section you see at the right edge of the horizontal photo has to stay, unfortunately, as does the drywall along this side.

Die Elektrik ist auch fast fertig verlegt/sortiert und unter Putz gelegt.

Details/Einzelheiten

Some close-ups of the details that are the reason for all this work.

Schöne Sockelleisten, versteckt hinter einer Panele. Das musste wieder freigelgt werden.
