Jim Saw Fit To Install Soffit






OK... now that all the dust has cleared from the last week and a half of intense work, we took a day off to go and get more supplies. I didn't think we would ever run out of nails but the unthinkable did happen. So a-shopping we did go. When we returned, Jim had a supply of soffit in the trailer. Nothing would do but he had to create a jig (thank you to Habitat For Humanity for the inspiration) to cut the soffit into appropriate lengths and then begin installing it. The siding continues but as he gets high and closer to the eaves, he can now install the soffit at the same time he's up there installing siding. OK...it means a few more trips up and down the ladder but think of the muscle tone in those old legs.

  1. Your house is really looking awesome. I hope someday Stan and I will be able to come and see it personally - after your kitchen is ready, of course! Sandy
