Just showing off my work

Such an awesome challenge. I framed it on the weekend with nobody bugging me. The interfacing of the metal contractor and the roofer and the tile guy and the stucco guy and all the different rain screen assemblies with venting or no venting and is it an actual circle? No but it sure does look like like one from where you're standing, that was the trick. And of course it's a flat flashing with no downturn for hiding finishes. Everything perfect to a knife edge. The whole thing was just conceptualized in a meeting where I suggested a change to open up what was a full wall, completely blocking the best view in the house. So in a cool architecture moment the husband of the architecture team, Harley took a pair of scissors and cut out a circle that was originally just a roof opening. He then took the paper circle and folded and laid it on the model over the wall and roof. Everyone was in awe and they asked, "Jon, can you build it?". I said **** yeah. And that was the end of the detailing, I took over from there with site meetings and mockups. Probably one of the most fun things I've ever had to build.
It's always the weird stuff that I like the best. Not exactly a cost saving feature, but so well executed. Bravo.
