Well, they'll be working on it tomorrow, but I'm thinking it's more about doing it than actually finishing it. Gideon's attention span for it is rather short.
The roof is simple, the sides are the roof, you bring each row of blocks in ~1/8-1/4th the distance of the block, eventually your walls tilt in to the roof.
It's probably slightly more complex than 1/8th, something graduated I suppose, 1/16th at first, 1/2 at the top. Same principle though, and YES it was hella hard work... Hopefully tomorrow if work lets up some the snow will be in better shape for the the project.
That looks like wonderful hard work. A home in the snow. Does it ever get finished?

ReplyDeleteMy question is how to create the roof?? That aside, I am extremely impressed that they are actually doing it and the progress made so far!
