Wall-to-wall

Having got the roof up and the floor down, it was time to turn attention back to the walls and start filling in the gaps there.  We decided we’d use up the rest of that Pergo flooring we’d got first and then take it from there. Another marathon session of measuring, cutting drilling and sanding ensued. That Pergo stuff is as hard as iron and eats jigsaw blades for breakfast. Slowly but surely, however, Herman is starting to look a bit like a hovel-from-home these days.

Incidentally, in this shot you can see the floor we completed yesterday, but which i forgot to photograph at the time.

Such a lot of wall to cover!

And there’s one on the other side too.

First job was to put batoning across all the walls, so we could screw the boards on

Finishing off a section

…Mazza finished of carpeting the back wall around the doors. It’s starting to look quite cozy now!
