Welcome to the 4077th


The first half of the gunite gets done tomorrow, and today guide wires were installed to mark where the inside surface of the walls should be. A drain pipe was also installed in the window well so that we can install a sump pump to hook to a drain (for a sink) at some future point.

I'm not sure what purpose the camouflage cover serves, unless we're expecting a visit from 5 o'clock Charlie in the next few days.

Also, the rebar going down the middle of the basement is where a block wall will be built once the walls and floor are in. The idea is to have two rooms down there - the front room will be a home theater (eventually). The wall will also act as a support for the front half of the first floor, which has to be made with steel and concrete since part of it is the garage floor.

I took a few detail pictures of the wires that were set up today. They and the other pictures taken today can be found here.
