This involves about a million decisions on lights, plugs, switches, and generally trying to figure out all the potential future needs and installations…..yikes. Ariane has been up to the task on the lighting and is handling that crucial aspect. Meanwhile, we set the ledgers for the upper and lower decks and started running the metal roofing panels. The plasterer Felipe is barreling through and has the first story wrapped in paper and wire for stucco. He will be back Monday with a crew to set all the scaffolding for getting the whole thing wrapped… a huge undertaking. I have a crew coming on Monday to help us with the roofing and we should have that done next week, then the whole thing will be completely waterproof….yeah!

So here are some updated pictures:

East side wrapping

South side , with first roof panels installed!

The roofing should go fast, each panel is 38″ wide and after overlapping, you cover a 3′ by whatever length the roof is with one piece…sweet!  Metal roofs are great, they do not have the thermal mass of shingles or tiles which radiate  heat back into the structure, so you stay cooler in summer, warmer in winter. Plus with baked on finish the metal roof lasts 40 yrs. The underlayment is special too as it is also rated for 40 yrs, unlike felt paper which is about 15. So you end up with a pretty maintenance free roof for a  long time.

You lay the roof panels on so the overlap faces away from the main direction of rain and bad weather. In our case that is from the northwest, so all the overlaps face east.

The installation of electricity and plumbing is unique for these structures as well, here are some details.

You have to block out areas where plumbing goes like this. The red spray paint marks the electrical chases. To pull wire or move it through the chases, you can make a 4" hole and then feed wire.

Fire sprinkler riser…..

Here you can see a switch box and the circle cut for feeding wire to a light outlet..

Here are some random photos of the interior space:

Ariane, James and I built the stairs!…no more ladders!

Rien Ne Va Plus were formed in 2007 and completed by the second guitarist in 2008.

Due the expirience of every single band member, and the constant of practising of at least 3 times every week, Rien Ne Va Plus decided to record their first demo cd, without having had one single live gig at that moment.

So not only the short amount of time the band had to write and finalize the seven songs, but also the fact that Rien Ne Va Plus haven´t performed their songs live before, corroborates the high quality of their first CD.

With the help of Los Dreams, Rien Ne Va Plus made substantial progresses with their studio – work and so the cd was released at the end os september.

In January 2010 a new memebr joined RNVP, DJ able on the turntable. AT the Moment RNVP is snowed under with work to organize several live gigs.

The last day of the 12 Days of Skratchmas is upon us. But let’s not be sad as Christmas is just about to begin properly for everyone. And hopefully this final prize will bring a massive smile to someone’s face, as I have a complete controller setup to give away courtesy of Numark. A Mixtrack Pro, Red Wave headphones, Laptop Stand and a pair of NPM5 monitors. But that’s not all – thanks to Magma Bags, I have a one of a kind, never to be repeated skratchworx branded rolltop backpack. Even I don’t have one of these.
