This post has been a long time coming. It's been a long summer. To update on the happenings in Rayland Ohio; Brad, Chris, Ariel, Anthony and Marc worked on the site for several more weeks from June and into July. Everyone had to take a break around the 4th so Brad could go teach another building reclamation class. During the remaining weeks the rest of the columns went up under the floor, the floor was framed out, gabions put in place of the windows and doors, and the decking put on. There was additional help from our favorite family the Zeigler/gGott's. Terry, her husband, and brothers all came out the help on the weekends.
All the materials except the decking are the reclaimed materials from the old building. We couldn't use reclaimed materials for the decking because it will be exposed to the elements and we needed durable pressure treated wood. The gabion filling in the door came out especially nice with the cross detail.
