this week was spent fixing all the wall in the desired slots and screwed in place using a drill cordless drill and and posi drive then we went on to the architrave which is the  piece that goes around the edges of the windows they are all cut at 45 degrees angles and made to fit similar to the one featured
on the right



also the skirts were to be measured and cut to the right length before they were fixed how ever these were just square cuts like this one featured below these ran along the whole bottom of the sleep out and  along the tops aswell

WEEK FOURTEEN

we recieved help form the soxx team with our ceiling using the rondo steel system
like the on featured on the left notice the steel running along the inside benneath the rafters thus creating a steel  batten which the ceiling can be fixed to
after the rondo system has been applied to the ceiling in goes the insulation
which consists of R3.2
and then on top of the this will go the gib board which for the ceiling is 13mm standard
after the ceiling was in place we then used 10mm standard gib for the walls one side being standradr gid and the other being braceline
