trim carpentry day 5

Our stairs have all got their risers and treads. The trim on the bookcases is fixed to our satisfaction. The trim carpenters came back and applied a little more trim to the bench, making it go from being really nice to spectacularly nice. It’s amazing how little details can really carry something over like that. And the fireplace surround is done.

Plus: our electrical service is in! No more generators. The meter isn’t here yet, but that’s not big deal, the drop is installed and we’re just waiting on them to shove a meter in the box.

Some of these pics are from when I went out over lunch hour. The rest are from a night visit, we didn’t get out until after dark, so the pics are a bit substandard, but I still watned to show off the first look into the family room through my custom bookcases.

These shots were from later that night, sorry for the poor quality, but the lighting was inadequate.
