Is this a house or an international airport terminal?

I have seen multi storey carparks with smaller steelwork TBH!
Engineer seems to have over engineered some things.
Least it won't fall down(I hope)

It does look like it will be something rather special! Certainly raises the question of why so many of us live in modest homes for incredibly high prices just to have access to London! It always amazes me when you see some of the houses on the TV that end up in truly magnificent and large properties and still get lots of change out of £750k.

Looking forward to see how this develops ; nice one :0)

Amazing what you get for your money in Scotland.

Glulam beams in below walkway and above hall



First roof trusses in. (the back ones will be Glulam and visible when finished).



Just two quick iPhone snaps when I came in from work. W busy so never spent much time!
Hopefully better stuff tomorrow as more roof work and Glulams in.

[shambolic]

Roof structure going up with Glulam beams to back which will be partially exposed to match the front and walkway beams when finished.

Sorry not been on as progress a bit slow due to weather and builders and usual stuff!!
We have a roof of sorts! Slated next week. Stonemason coming tomorrow to start rebuilding internal stone walls.
Here's a couple of photos from today.











Will update next week after roof etc!!

[shambolic]

Stonemason almost finished the internal lounge to library wall. Just the pointing to be done.

[Rollcage]

That seems like some decent work - looking good!

[Olf]

Very nice!

That looks incredible, you will end up with a large individual property, very jealous!

Wood burning stove instal. Stovax Duplex glass on both sides 9kw with ducted hot air to higher level.
Granite frame being fitted after chimney wall built.
Gives you a wee idea.





Ps looks high but floor level still to come up with underfloor heating and screed.

[shambolic]

Roof not finished due to delay with windows! Still waiting on damp proof guys so we can get on with floor etc!!!

[shambolic]

Windows and dpc next week so should hopefully make better progress.

[shiftydave]

Can't wait to see how this turns out.

[Pixel-Snapper]

This is turning out great.

I'd be more than happy with just the middle bit!

[joscal]

Looks absolutely stunning!

[NotNormal]

Any updates on this one Mr shambolic?

[Funk]

Indeed, hoping progress is going well Shambolic!

[Esseesse]
