What kind of ceiling?
Gets a V groove prefinished 1x6 T&g from Woodtone. It's going to be a transparent white. Called 'Irish Cream'.

It's backordered can't get it until July 2nd. We're leaving July 3rd for son's wedding. Home owner was very cool about it.

As for the corner, We discussed the L shaped drop and yes that was our final decision to maintain the flow.

We installed 1x on both sides of the column drops so the stucco guys could have a place to bump their Milcor to. We screw it out far enough to remove easily and push our ceiling into the open space.

The show must go on! We can even get the painters in before the ceiling as well without worry of any over spray.

That's more than enough fun for one day.

Had maybe 6" to start with and the walls there were super drafty. I could feel the cold coming off of them

Man I admire you. (y)

Insulation and roofing. Undoubtedly two of my least favorite jobs. 🤣
 
I was wondering how those footers would tie in. Now I see the big picture. Looking sharp (per usual).
The pleasant surprise was my home owner cut me a check for the concrete saw. 1100 bucks. He's been very generous.

My stucco guys are doing a great job! View attachment 512859 View attachment 512860
What you plan on running for ceilings? Saw this ZipUp system display in a vendor showroom end of last week and felt pretty solid compared to the usual vinyl similar in aesthetic. You ever use it Mike? Curious to how well it lays out and keeps its lines.

 
Everybody loved the good old days before they put a coating on the fiberglass. You'd be more than a touch itchy. Itch and fiery rashes.
I still remember discovering fiberglass back in the early 80s at my aunt and uncles house when I was about 5 years old.

Found a bunch in the shed and I was rolling all in it.....look like the fire ants got me. [emoji1787]

I was miserable for a few days.

Similar story on my end. Only difference was I was rooting around in attic space above my second story bedroom and decided to plant both feet through drywall and turn bedroom into “open concept.” Same end result of the itch haha. Memories come back so randomly

I sat on deteriorating fiberglass pool equipment. Man, that was terrible.
