The ceiling is coming together

The day started out with sweeping the frame. Having done all the high work we were taking advantage of the holes in the ceiling to drop our shavings.

Work continues on the Zodiak level.

Jacob and I install a blue, white and red ribbon of trim at the bottom of the ceiling, called the Ziggerot.

 

And we quickly get an appreciation for how tricky it is to install already painted boards.

And it takes quite a bit of help.

 The first of the pendentives is completed. Though there were no white ribbons between the panels. Everything was painted, so the next task is to see what needs to be done in order to put up a trim piece that has to be made and then painted, before it can be installed.

After all this work we did manage to all go out together for a beer

And our favorite pizza place. There was much rejoicing!
