Tomorrow will be dedicated to sheathing. Ended up going with 9' walls.

Carl Fisher Member Joined Jun 7, 2011 Messages 2,775 Location Cape Coral, FL May 26, 2014 #11 Thanks all. Got about 80% of the sheathing done yesterday and today before it got too hot/humid today. Wrapped it up to clean up for company. Here it will probably sit until next weekend.
