Framing Bedrooms and Book Nooks

A collection of framing photos...

Here, a tool called a "plumb bob" helps us transfer a point on the ceiling down the the floor in the exact same place (good for keeping walls straight)


Here's my miter saw that we used to cut all our studs.






The beginnings of the boy's bedroom.




The creepy area under the stairs (thanks to our boys' creative idea) will become a book nook, complete with pillows, a wall sconce and it's own light switch.

  1. With plumb bobs, miter saws, and creative sons I see a future in a new profession, although being a judge has it's rewards -- you can sit while you work.

  3. This all reminds me of Grandpa Larsen finishing his basement himself. Way to have such a creative and impressive mind! I can tell what a great addition this will be for your home and family.
