I was only able to work today as I was busy doing other things. I did take a trip to the builders merchant yesterday (Saturday) though to get a bag of mortar and a couple of truss clips for the remaining joist. I was a couple of truss clips short because I changed the studwork pitch from 600mm to 400m before starting the job. This resulted in two more joists being added. I finished off the trunking between the two buildings which just needed a bit of mortar filling the gaps around the outside. I also had a brick to reset on the garden BBQ.
I did another couple of small jobs on the framework that needed finishing.
Over the last few weeks I've also been doing a bit of thinking with regards the ceiling height, or lack of it!! I've decided to inset the first two layers of plasterboard in-between the joists. I'll then put the final layer over the top in the standard way. I'd like to thank Paul Woodlock for the idea as he did the same on the ceiling of his studio build...so Paul if you do happen to read this at any stage - cheers. This will involve attaching two square section timbers each side of the joists. So I need to get down to the builders yard and get hold of 18 lengths.
