Howard, Blair, and Tommy D helped me finally get my walls up. Even though I had measured everything six ways from Sunday, it was still a little surprising and exhilarating to see everything I had been working on horizontally for weeks suddenly become vertical, and to see them all slide home and all be square, and the same height, and almost plumb right off the bat. Even the wheel well cutouts were dead on. And no hernias!

Then I cut out the rest of the windows and the door, and holy crap! It’s huge! I might have to sell this one and build a smaller one.
