My helper, Kyla has left after great progress on the garage loft drywall. I spent the whole next day finishing up with lots of screws and fiddly bits.

| Bit of a mess but finished |
Before Kyla left we did a bit on the stairwell where two bodies were better than one. We constructed a platform which works quite well. I'll keep the pieces for later when I mud and paint the high parts.

So I am tackling the hardest pieces on my own. This means getting creative with the lift. It doesn't really fit in the narrow stairway so I have to fold up the legs. This makes it very unstable. Solution: tie the legs through the floor. This worked quite well all in all.

| The fix |

| Up she goes for the ceiling |
 |
| A good fit, now screw the dickens out of it |

| The finished product. |
Just have a couple of pieces to put on at the top of the stairs and then tomorrow I will do the garage/house wall. This is a code issue as well. Then, yes you heard it hear first, I am going to start the flooring. A bit more leveling and paper to put down but I am ready to go.
