And, I prefer it like this with NO timber detail.

That’s probably the best option, especially since none of the other gables will have a matching detail.

A barrel with hip returns fit the house IMOP

If I had to pick a timber detail I would split the intersection

The plan is to get out of the Jacuzzi and immediately into the 40 degree cold tub. Shocks the system. He's got about 30k tied up in that.

Wrapped this last week. I think. Been so busy I can't remember what deck I'm on anymore.

We usually use 3/4" ipe for Base but the walls had 1" + waves. Went with 2*4 boral bevel 45 edge and painted.

Walls are Hardie panels on 1*3 fering strips. Installed in proper rain scream style

Finally back to the old save a lot to install the edge metal....

Before....

After....

This was a nice one to start the week, planned 3 days and was out by 1 today (2.5 days). I think I could've wrapped it up in 2, but my wife wasn't feeling well Monday/ Tuesday

Ripped out the old rod and shelf in the 3 master closets, fresh coat of paint, and lots more storage.

I might have to start marketing these, went very smooth except for one wall that I had to trim the shelves 3/8 (quality trapezoidal framing)

Nice.

Started framing today.

Looks like a 0 barrier home.

Still chugging along on the Kitchen Nook. Doing other stuff while I was waiting for the last pc of metal mesh to come in. Ordered 6 of them and they came in with one package being damaged. Had to wait about a week before the 7th one came in to replace the damaged one.

And I couldn't cut the mesh with tin snips, just too thick for my snips. So I had to cut each and every wire with nippers. 4 foot strips 14" wide. It's like 96 cuts per length times two sides times 12 strips.

And then I had to make the 3/8" x 1/4" quarter round. 35 pcs 44" and 5 pcs 30" to make the 72 pcs to hold in the mesh. So 144 miters....

Of course they need to be sanded, them painted, then scuff sanded, then the final coat applied....

fun is...

Sounds like time to break out the angle grinder.

Yup. A little slower to frame the deck but it's nice to not have any steps anywhere. Not an old couple but they have older family they want to make sure have easy access when they come over.

Everyone says that. The mesh is to delicate. It's not welded at the joints, just little curves that intersect and hold it in place, it's more of a weave. Plus I don't know what the heat would do to the brass plating on the steel wire. I only have to cut it to length now. And after all that cutting I've developed a system to do it pretty quick.

Finally got this done, what a pain, Pipe chimney was not longer being used so just got rid of it. Made my own standing seam roof panels. Sides rebuilt , step flashed and counter flashed. Pleased the way came out and so is sister. Why to much time into it, but so much making , cutting and fitting pieces.

Fun Project

Sold the client on some cool freestanding redwood trellises, the large one is 15x9 at the tallest points. Its bolted to the Simpson bases so it can be unbolted and carefully leaned forward to paint the wall if need be. I have post cap lights to go on the tops. Lots of time spent at HD going through con heart looking for the best pieces. Clear would have been stupidly expensive for this. I dried the wood before milling it and cleared it for waterproofing. The two little ones are leftover pieces that float off the walls. Heavy L brackets with epoxied carriage screws into the foundation sill. Easy way out would have been to plant Star Jasmine but I chose Solarum, Hardenbergia, Clematis and Trumpet vine. Finished with Hucheras and Hydrangeas. The floaters have Loropetalums that I'm going to espalier onto the trellises.

How was the reverse brickledge for you? The last 0 barrier home we did, a couple months ago, was junk. The concrete guys used foam in the forms to create the ledge and it floated all over. We spent a few hours cutting it level and fitting the ledger. Did you skip the rim board on the ledger? A lot of floor engineers spec the rim, or call for bridging even though the floor sheething is fastened to the foundation plate a few inches away.

I think big guys are that way on purpose so they don't have to do the things us little guys do. :laughing:
