Framing, Continued

After more hours Sunday and today, the walls are up. Disappointingly, I was unable to get the verticals exactly true -- the level bubble is within the marks, but not centered. How do real carpenters do that?

My assistants were able to help today, holding the sheathing plywood in place while I marked it, delivering nails and so forth, which made them more happy to spend time out there.

The town is going to dispatch a building inspector to check progress later this week. Just like a real house!
