Today I made the swing and hung it on the porch, since once the screen goes on the posts and the posts are installed, that's the last of accessing the porch; so I'll need to apply the siding & paint it, hang the front door and make a small table to set next to the swing.

I also sanded tabs and filled slots & gaps with spackling compound & when it was dry I went back and began sanding. It wasn't all quite dry, so I'll finish another time.

I folded a piece of copier paper against one of the attic walls to make a pattern for a divider wall for the bathroom.

I had a few pieces & scraps of siding left from the Westville, so I began to apply vertical "beadboard" to the upstairs walls. So far I think it'll look good, I can tell better when it's all done and primed.

Next I found that the kitchen door fits the left opening of the front porch posts piece if the inner opening is trimmed plain, so I trimmed it. The piece I cut out to enlarge the kitchen door opening to accommodate the Houseworks door will be perfect for holding the hinges. Now I'll use some of the kit scrapwood to make the screen door.

The utility knife has been doing a great job on this kit's plywood already, so I shall carry on with it as soon as I put a new blade in it. First I want to sand down the doorframe edges just a bit more.
