SHEATHINGOctober 1 & 2, 2008 |
|
10/1/08 - Ken MacFawn let us borrow his generator after Gene's gave up the ghost. (Thanks, Ken!) However, one of the battery cables had come loose. Luckily for our Club, we've got a Mr. Fix-It in Ivan Arsenault! |

| Work got started around 10 o'clock and continued all day in spite of the constant drizzle. | |

 |
Bob Stickney and Bob Milligan begin putting up the sheathing on the west side of the building. |
Louise Stickney uses a battery operated Paslode nailer to secure the sheathing. Thanks go to Ken MacFawn for letting us borrow this handy tool! |

Bob and Bob are almost finished putting up the first row of sheathing of the east side of the building. |

Thanks to Arthur Boivin for taking these aerial photographs of the building just prior to putting on the roof trusses. |
