Cool pics Wayne. They really are banging away on that garage, huh?!
You are a braver man than I for sure, going up on the lift and taking those pics.

Those lifts can be fun at times! I have spent countless hours on them over the last 20+ years! No that you have been up that high imagine the weight of a 12' 5/8'' piece of sheetrock pushing you around! Good times! Glad the other guys on the crew do that, not me!!

I like the sun tunnel idea.

Keep us posted on the sun tunnels. I've heard good things about them and I'm curious what you think.

Default Sun Tunnels

Scott; My sister inlaw has one in her bathroom. Every time I leave the room I try to shut the light off ,but its not on. They give plenty of light. She has the 10" in there I put three 14" in the garage I hope with those and the two windows will give good enough light during the day for general stuff in there.

They finnished the roof Monday and put the domes on the sun tunnels to make the roof weather tight. The only thing left for them to do is the porch and siding, then the rest is up to me and it will slow down quite a bit.

Here are some pictures from yesterday.

Started the valley










Here they are finnishing up the roof



The windows went in and their goint to work out well. The bottom of the window is about chest hieght. I didn't noticed that the locks are connected when you lock the bottom it locks the top at the same time. Which is good the top is out of my reach.





The man door went in.



Heres an obstructed picture of the roof





The're starting on the porch and getting ready for the siding. I'm waitng for some triangle gable end vents that I ordered last Friday.
