Work in progress photo gallery:
Hmmm, most of these photos seem to feature Andre! I guarantee you, I was there every minute of the way, equally covered in red, white & black paint!

In this photo you can see a closeup of the scaffold he built to access one of the tricky areas in the upper front.
14 Ornamental Roof Trusses:

Andre built these from lengths of 6x6 cedar. They cost close to $100 each pre-made, and he was able to make 3 for $40. Not a bad savings! He made them up pretty quick in the garage-turned-workshop and I had the task of getting 2 coats of paint on them.
Our Garage-turned-Workshop:
Andre pre-designed the wainscoting (2 x front, 1 side & 1 rear; this is the rear one) in the only large flat spot - on the road infront of our neighbour's back gate.
