The floor is a lot of hard work from our land. Seth hand planed the boards. Two inches thick and heavy but absolutely beautiful when you look up!
Dan is in the back and 75 years old. Eddie on the left is the crew chief and owns Axe Handle Distillary.
They will be used for 2nd floor carrying beam and rafter ridge pole.
Trucks had a tough time getting into the site, but were finally successful. Three in total. Everything arrived intact. They used $2000+ in diesel fuel costs if you can believe that. Unloaded most of beams including two 36 foot 10x8 carying beam.
The hardest job so far next to digging the cellar hole was installing and burying the conduit for the electrical service. The cable alone weighed 350 pounds and was all Seth and I could do to drag it in place. We laid the cable and then slid and glued the conduit over it. Glad that this job is behind us.
