Building House in Kram

No, it's not the Swedish word "glass". Today we got glass on the windows and doors. The shop told us that the glass that is a bit green selling a lot here in Thailand - personally we hate green glass - so we tried to find some grey glass without mirror on one side and found some at the local glass shop. Here is some pictures on the 5 mm glass mounting/mounted. Mounting Doors and kitchen window ready Ready here too  

Here is some pictures of the paint. Be aware that it's not finished yet - everything has to be painted three times. Sanding and painting all windows. No clear laquer on yet. Typicalk thai teak windows The folding doors look nice now. From the dining area A lot to do. The front entrance ceiling. Soon ready with the living room. Deck - Dining - Living room The hall is getting some paint too.

Today six painters started to work again on the house. There is a lot to do and they have planned to be ready before August. The house was stripped from the tree, so now it's easier to see the house again. Taking off the tree now when the upper walls has been painted. This is the house color. (not the lower part) Front after starting to take down the tree. Painters start testing different pigments on the tree windows. We cannot use the light tree color due to all the marks in the tree we use. It's reused teak, probably from some old houses. The painters gives good advise on how to make it nice. This is result on the pigment. It will later get many layers of transparent varnish. There is a lot of sanding.... From the guest bedroom The pigment of the varnish looks good (my opinion) Painter working hard.

A lot of metal beams arrived today. They have to be painted - as usual with the red rust paint and then with the black enamel. Unpainted Paining by dipping them into the red rust protection paint OK, done with the red paint Now they got the black paint on too (this is some days later)

Today the parking slab was completed, next up will be the roofing.

Today some of the workers put up some gutters. It's not their job, but they want to take down the tree used to climb outside the walls, so why not do it anyway.

It's not easy to get a permit to use a drone in Thailand, but it is very useful when inspecting the roof - I think the builder have a permit?!
