Thursday night

We got two more pieces of ceiling up! This is a neat project in a lot of ways, one of which being that we accept the slow and deliberate pace at which each piece needs to happen. It's calming and gratifying. Erika measures and I write it down. Then I measure and she checks it against hers. If it's different, even by a 16th or 32nd of an inch, we each measure again. It's like this when we mark up the board for cutting as well.



Measuring up and clamping down a 2x4 guide for the circular saw:



Tape along the edge of the neighboring panel so that we can mark the locations of the screws and transpose them to the new board:





Two more pieces in place, aligned, and installed:
