Heather's hatbox is successfully suspended above the future dining table now- all three-way switched and everything. Starting to look like a Sunset Magazine photo, huh?
Our friends Darren and Charl came in all the way from the Sammamish Plateau yesterday so Darren could help me get electrical work started. We spent three hours trying to figure out how Sparky had the place set up to work, and ended up only able to get Heather's Hatbox mounted and glowing. Looks great. I'm just wondering how many times we're all going to bonk our heads on it before the table is put into place. The count is two at the moment; wait 'til Steve and Pete show up tomorrow.
This morning, we found some #*&%@~$ egged the house. A half dozen or so, splattered the living room window and Tyvek walls. Unbelievable. So we lost a few hours today while Heather had to get some cleaning supplies and get everything all mopped up. Dang.
And today, I was able to turn the living room lights into a 3-way switched group, and then I moved to the basement where I hung Kian's bedroom light and the man-cave light, and yesterday I put in all the recessed MR16 wall washers and got the ones in the media room working today. (Another 3-way group!) Also got all the media room outlets installed and plated, along with the quads in the man-cave, though they aren't all powered yet.
Tuesday Darren is supposed to come into town again to work with me, we have some four-way guys to do, and in general find a lot of power because some of the places Sparky has the power running aren't quite easy to find. Hmmm...
That's it for now; another long weekend, including the Sunrise Heights gig last night, and then it's back to work in the morning. Oy!
Cial!
