The Quarky Engineer

Progress on the house continues… Cabinetry is a slow process. 😉 Stone templating was done early this week, so fabrication will start on Monday.

Lower floor is mostly done, awaiting floor installation and some trim painting. The gas heater for the lower floor is installed and working.

Service was installed at the gate. Interesting that they used a dedicated 25KVa transformer for a single service that will probably draw 5 amps.

Front door will be red, as picked by Audrey.

Cabinet installation is underway, the main fireplace limestone is almost complete, some tile is underway in a few bathrooms, and I am about ready to install a floor in the network/server room.

I’m curious to see how well this works.

A few drone pictures, and a few 360 degree inside pictures now that the hardwood floors are installed.

I also did an updated walkthrough video:

And a short video about the wiring:

Now we have more wood, and gas.

We have wood.

It is interesting to look at the original 3D model I put into Google Earth before we started construction, compared to the actual a few months ago.

Well, some things have happened over the last year. 2020, 2019, 2017.

A few small updates… The hardwood was delivered this week so it will have some time to acclimate to the temperature and humidity. 10,000 lbs in total weight.

The wood trim around the windows are getting installed as well as the stone for the fireplace. Progress!

Before the snow comes I thought I would get a few drone shots. It has been a few weeks since I last took some, and this seemed to be the calm before the storm.
