Take a good look at the upper room of the house- it doesn't look anything like that anymore.....
another view of what was the stairs to the upper rooms
Tony- the philosopher carpenter-
Patrick- the BOSS!
Starting with the carpets.....
Then go the walls
Kym and tony- you will never believe the discussion these two are having......
The electricity is cleared off the walls......
And now you can see from window to window......almost....
clearing all wood posts.....
and walls........
Now it is truely big- notice the ceiling is gone......
And insulation is put under the floor....
doesn't it look nice?
JinTra is helping a lot...
Tony's kid has dropped in for a visit...
and now you can see the view to the north......(the right angle window)
and to the south......(the round window) And electricity is being installed...
and the view is as stunning as ever! more to come........
The ceiling is being insulated
Then the boards
Scott is having fun making faces and working hard
Half is already up....
Now the other half is being laid
This is how it looks when it is complete
How very dignified...
And the floor is being prepared now for the under floor heating and the floor board
This is the insulation to go under the heating....
Isn't it nice?
You can see whoever took the pictures really like the way it looks as he took so many of them.....
The metal slabs that the water pipes are put in....
And this is the underfloor heating going in....
Really pretty, isn't it?
and another look....
The floor boards are now in full gear...
Working really fast
Bhante has just landed -back from NZ
Just another look..... and the rest is still to come....
The floor is done and now it is being cleaned before sanding
Sanding?????
Sanding the floor
The carved window is fitted in
and a close up
And this is the first Dhamma talk given in the main hall!
from another angle.. You are all welcome to come and look for yourselves.....
