April 2, 2008 - Another good day! The highlight today was getting to work with a air powered nail gun for the first time. I'm borrowing it from Ellie's mom's ex-boyfriend who does construction, so I need to get done with my project quickly. It's been at least 6 months since I bought the wood for putting a paneled ceiling in my recording studio, and it has just been sitting there as I fret over how to nail in all the panels while holding the board and a hammer and a nail. This gun makes it easy. I can slide the board into its groove, then while holding the gun in one hand and the board in another, I just shoot the nail in. Mike came over to help me out. We got enough boards pre-cut to do about half of the ceiling. It was 10:30 when I called it quits for the night. I'm looking forward to getting back in there tomorrow and putting in more of the ceiling.
