Forty days and forty nights. New heights, new low.

Well ain't this just something of beauty!

My friend Eric (who has been advising and teaching me all along) came by today and helped me put together the frame you see there. My homework after he left was to run to the hardware store and bring back some more lag screws, add a couple braces, etc.


But.. I thought I'd juuuust add the one more joist hang first. Turns out the nails don't have much grip when nailed straight:


So tonight I returned in the dark to fix my flub but ended up far worse!


Expecting thinderstorms tomorrow. What a sad state in which to leave this humble project for a couple days :(
