Studio Construction: Cedar Soffit

Dave is making the porch and arcade soffit from strips of rough finish, tongue and groove, western red cedar.

 It smells so good out near his saw bench.

I knew it was a special delivery when the truck arrived with its load wrapped in plastic.

The finished soffit over the arcade...

...and over the porch.

It gives just the right look and feel we wanted for the shed.

Meanwhile, we have finished backfilling the trench. I can now continue with building up the garden bed over the whole area.

Happy birthday, Donnel. Hi, Walter. 

My sister and brother-in-law read my blog every Saturday morning in a cafe over their flat whites.
