Staircase and Siding

We finished the staircase this week. Pete built it with local pine. The stingers are stained to match the beams in the rest of the house. We left the stairs natural to match the flooring that we plan to install. We weren't sure if the staircase would need to be supported underneath. But it's solid! Pete and the boys raised the staircase themselves using a simple pulley and chain system.



Pete and the kids also finished putting the board part of our board and batton siding.
