The window glass aka plastic are all in. I started staining the exterior siding last night. Siding will go on first, followed by windows an trim. Was about to install the windows but caught myself going bass akwards again.

Live and learn!

Philip,

The roof and weathering look fantastic. Very well done and I love the standing seam roof panels.

All thumbs up here.

Thanks Tom!

Inching forward with exterior trim. Ran out of stained lumber. More in the dip.
I mentioned in the lounge about applying the exterior boards to the interior wall......not good but I think I'll trim the interior windows on that wall as punishment.

Not 'miscut', but 'detailing parts' for the scene ;D

And actually being colorblind might have helped you.  I find sometimes I use too many different colors.  On yours, the walls and roof kinda look like they've all been weathered with the same color dust, and That's A Good Thing.

Coming on nicely, Philip.

Neat little pegs you are using.  I've never seen any quite like that before.

Cheers, Mark.
