Muddy Monday

Taping and mudding on Fellowship Hall wall.

New door and mudding in kitchen.

More mudding in kitchen with drying fan.

New door in back hallway. Exterior painting continues. The "yellow" is the
prime coat, not the finish color.

 

We passed the drywall nailing inspection last Friday, so the taping and mudding began today.

They brought in fans to help with the drying process. The seams are being mudded first then the "nail" holes (they are actually drywall screws) will be filled. I'm not sure how many layers of mud they put on before it is considered complete.

 

   The soffit on the back side now has two coats and we can begin painting the siding. We still need a second coat of soffit paint on the front. The interior beams continue to be a project of touching up. There is a coat of paint on the major sections, but it take a tall ladder or scaffold to reach some of the detail work.

 

   Come this weekend, we can probably use all the painters we can get--inside and out. While I was painting on Sunday evening, some of the Marshall Island fellows volunteered to stop by this weekend to help us. That will be great! Kommol tada! (thank you).
