      I have admit, I didn't expect to see the walls be that high.
      Comparison with the old roof line on the chimney means there must be an extreme sloping section of roof between them... I'm off to look at some old photos as the chimney does not seem high enough!

      My Dad was a builder here in Canada and when he hired a new carpenter, he always hired Brits. He thought they were the best trained in all aspects of life in school. He sure proved it with all his crews.

    The Mansard roof going to the 23ft peak is higher than the chimneys. That little peak of flashing on the chimney is where the long angled side of the Mansard is attached. So, the chimney is very close to the roof and flashed for weather protection. It is basically hidden but not the actual peak. Dan’s got it right.

    I used to think this building was a bit small compared to other proper castle restoration projects…. But now that it’s coming together, I realize this is actually the perfect size, it has the fascination of a chateau but without those rows and rows of rooms that are not really needed. I’m particularly intrigued by the last floors: those “side rooms” and the center higher room, and the turret on top of that, promise to be really interesting when they’ll be all finished.

    I look forward to your “good morning!”
    I love watching you take a pile of bricks and sort of walls… a shell… and turn it into a real solid structure again. I considered this resurrection impossible.
    Boy, I was so wrong!
    I thought… no way will he do this… there are trees growing out of the walls! Trees are probably holding it up!
    I kept watching ~ moments where I thought whole brick walls would fall on you… I was sitting with my hands over my eyes at moments… and saying a little prayer for you and the boys! I was worried one of you would fall off the side… or one of those board would flip ~ so I watched to make sure you were all safe too! 😳
    Now, I have total faith in you and your crew ~ pretty sure all of you can do anything. It is so exciting to watch you rebuild everything!
    Now I can appreciate the beauty as you work. I no longer worry about you as much but I still have moments when you’re putting loads of board on the wire thing and trying to swing them in on the upper levels ~ please be careful sir! I swear my heart skips a beat until I see you got it and all is well. Whew!!!
    Thank you for sharing this journey ~ watching you rebuild this is one of the most inspiring things I have ever seen!

      @@brandyjean7015 I do small diy things… I laid pavers last summer by myself and felt extremely smart and sassy after. I even have attempted building some kitchen shelves using power tools like a pro (in my mind).
      So I had no idea this kind of work was possible without an army of men and machines. I have been floored watching what one man can do with the right help… and knowledge ~ and most of all heart! You gotta love this work to want to get up and tackle this project that is for sure!
      Anyway, I am now watching and find myself wondering what in the world will he paint the walls? How will the beautiful windows go in and what kind of flooring will he choose?
      First, the roof ! And then probably a ton of structure stuff ~ I have no idea what comes next… who am I kidding. I have to watch to find out! 😁

    We always build a temporary scaffold out of 2x4s and 1/2 inch plywood. We make an H frame box about 5 feet below the ridge and run 2 parallel 2" x 10" planks on each side of the ridge. We brace it off with more 2x4's then we incorporate those 2x4s into the partition walls when we are done with the roof. it makes for a very stabile work platform and doesn't take up much room, usually we make 3-4 of those frames to support the planks and it is wonderfully safe and stable to work on. We don't take it down until the roof is all sheathed. It makes roof framing so much safer!!
