Dramatic Distraction - The San Franciscan

There have been a lot of dramatic things happening at our house this week and I haven't gotten as much done on my San Franciscan as I would have preferred by now, but I have made some progress. All of the wall pieces are glued (which I'd hoped to have done by Wednesday but just finished yesterday) and most of them are primed and ready for sanding. Most of my window frames are primed and ready for sanding, then I can paint the frames and put the "glass" in and start the leading process.

So far, everything has been at a slow pace that I can mess with it as I have time, but now I'm coming up on the dry-fitting stage and that will need a considerable piece of time as I want to get the whole shell up in one go.

I've also decided it's time to put my desire to learn some woodworking into action and I'm going to (hoping to) build all my kitchen pieces from scratch and have working doors and drawers in all the cabinets. But of course, the house itself comes first. I have ages to work on the interior, so I'm trying not to get ahead of myself.

Anyway, here's a not-the-most-recent picture of some of my pieces with primer drying on them.
