Last Build Day, Framing Style

Today was our last build day of the trip. I really enjoyed working with Stockton Habitat for Humanity. Also a shout out to the church we're staying at for making the most delicious breakfast ever. At the worksite we worked on the framing of the house. Team Wall-E worked hammered hard and constructed many walls.

It was a hot one today, but we worked at a steady pace. There were some "trick" nails that just kept bending. With some hammer practice those became less of an issue. We had to line ran stud up with the X's. Once the wall was completed the other group would cover the boards and stand them up on the foundation! It was really cool seeing how a few boards can create the beginnings of a home.

I decided to model in the future window of the home. I was also pretty proud of my work. It's not easy hammering nails all day long! 

We also did our last paintstar picture. Finding a tractor makes any picture fantastic. I can't believe our trip is comings to an end in just a few days! I loved working with various affordable housing groups this summer.

It has been a blast.

Off to Palo Alto tomorrow!
