Plates, Fill and Respect

The loggia now has the plate bolted to the top but forms have not been removed yet. Garage has been filled in and compacted. The framers have framed the roof over our bedroom. Today we picked our interior doors and moulding as well as the entry doors. We fortunately toured a home recently that had similar finish materials to what we had selected. We took a lot of pictures in that house and they were very helpful today.
This is the framing for the roof over the bay windows in our bedroom. Some of these pieces have multiple angles cut from end to end and all have curves cut into the tops. This is craftsmanship that will be covered up when the house is finished but the end result is impossible without it. The framers are modest about their skill but I have great respect for what they are doing.
