Well, it's once again decided to become a monsoon type Spring, so I got some chores done, inside.
Wow, this really ought to be a testament to Roxul. I spent several hours yesterday, trying to insulate the loft.
The things I learned: It is def. NOT itch-free, It DOES have a right and wrong side, It tears so incredibly easy. You def. NEED two people because you can't see what you are doing re: the dropdown spaces.
We DID need the wire supports as we have gravity up there. Thank the Goddess that I had Rich ask for them! It would have gone a lot slower if I didn't have them and had to turn to my solution (Taphole and thin dowels). lol
It's incredibly dusty, I was swallowing phlegm all night. Note to self: Don't be a lazy ass and climb down to get a mask!
I WILL need to redo the NE corner, as it was the first one I did and apparently, those studs are NOT 2' on center, so it got pretty chewed before I realized....Mistakes were made and others must be blamed, don't ya' know? Well, that piece is coming out and will be used in the wall, somewhere....
Anyhoo, I am still proud of myself, because by the 3rd piece I was darn near a pro! You can see my progression, below.....
1st piece (Disaster).....
2nd piece, (Coming out):
