We managed to squeeze in a little bit more work on the house while awaiting more "parts" and besides, we haven't had time to go pick up paint yet. This first picture shows some of the wiring on the ceiling heading over towards a place to put a ceiling fixture as well as a run going across the floor to the bay window area. You can also see where the tape goes out the top of the door to accomplish two things. Proved a tape to wire the porch light into and to get power to the second floor.blog-361-1131425972_thumb.jpgHere's where the tape enters the bedroom through the window, and I've begun my one inch from the floor tape run along the walls. Off of this tape, I put a vertical tape going up to the ceiling for the fixtrue there as well as across the floor where it connects to a tape off to the left, which continues through the hallway and into the bathroom.blog-361-1131426010_thumb.jpgHere you can see the tape wiring done in the bathroom. The tape from the bedroom comes in from the right and goes a short way up the left wall. There I've connected the one inch high run and sent that tape around all three walls and wrapped around into the hallway. You can't see it in this shot but in the hallway another tape connects and goes up to the center of the hall ceiling for it's light. There will be more wiring done in the hall area later so you'll see it when I get to that part. You can also see the mantle that belongs to the fireplace. Workmen leave things in the strangest places. We lost one of the brackets so I used the one we had as a template and made two new ones. Now if I lose another one, we've got a spare.blog-361-1131426037_thumb.jpgThis is a more closeup view of how I sent the electricity to the attic. The vertical tape for the ceiling fixture goes down to the floor. Off of that portion I sent a wire out my cut out hole and it goes across the back of the house on the outside. I'm going to cut a piece of wood and with putty patch up that hole "mostly". But it will not show as something will be in front of it. The main reason I'm closing it off is to protect the upper tape from damage since it sort of floats in the "air" as it cross the hole and I want something more solid behind it. Now the workmen have moved the mantle but left plywood laying around. blog-361-1131426065_thumb.jpgThis is just a shot of the tape wiring on the BACK of the house as it exits the hole on the second floor, and connects to a tape that enters the hole at the attic level.blog-361-1131426098_thumb.jpgAnd finally here's the tape entering the attic space. It doesn't go anywhere yet as I really haven't decided what we're going to do up here. But now that we have power up here, we've got plenty of tape wire left to make it go wherever in the attic we want it to be. For sure I'm going to want to put a light in the center of the tower top. Mel has other plans for the attic that may lead me to financial ruin. We shall see. LOL!Darrell blog-361-1131426117_thumb.jpgCompliments of DarrellandMelissa
