Few more updates

Since the finishing touches are going in, I thought you might like to see them "in progress". So keep that in mind. Everything you see is more than likely not 100% complete. But it's getting there. 

By the way - D O N E   is a four letter word to me.

Anyway, check out the new railings. They will feature some glass panels in the middle of each section. Tempered or course. Plus there will be an oval Maple wood railing on the top of the iron. This is what you will really grab, if you need to steady yourself.
And, Yes, there will be another one on the stairs. Due to arrive on Monday.




Another item required by code, and installed this week was some insulation in the basement. The township required it to either be in the ceiling of the basement, or on the perimeter walls. We choose the walls as it still leaves the ceiling open to run wires, etc to the first floor. Plus I hang a bunch of my wood working tools from the open joists. So the wall blanket insulation was the best choice.







And on the fun side of things..  The window motors were installed this week. They actually work as promised.   So if you remember the central "core" of the house has these really high windows that will allow the hot air to escape naturally in the spring/fall seasons. There are four windows total that were pre-wired, but I only got 2 motors for now. They work great.
