The crowd seemed to really enjoy it. This was our last film for the year. We'll be back in February with another film.

I'm using ink that will cure without heat setting, but takes a week. So probably will finish it next weekend.

The window stay and the door "closer" arm means I can now prop both open at various angles.
Added the side vent cover down below and a solar powered motion sensing "barn" light above the door.
Here is what it looks like after dark! Yay! Done (basically)

I still have to put the side vent cover on, the screen material over the upper vent window, and the last of the (hydraulic spring) hardware for the door. Add some lighting and silicone all the "window" plates.

Once I have a better idea what the temperature swings are, I can better decide what will grow in the greenhouse and what won't. I do plan to try some fall crops like lettuce. And maybe test if I can grow basil later into the fall.

That plus the odd automated hydraulic for the upper vent window is where we'll stop. I can finish everything else later - after he's deployed. These are the last 2 items that need two people to complete.

Also a built in work bench area and an upper shelf to add.
I'm ready for this to be done. It is starting to make me a bit crazy. Here are the progress pics: (4/4)

BUT... there is a flaw in their kit. So we're stalled until I can get the updated instructions from the company. Or we just hack it to work. Sigh.

Two Days Behind...
but we have a foundation! Pretty close to perfectly level - or as level as possible with imperfect wood. So tomorrow, we start the actual assembly of the greenhouse.

Once it is good and level then we build.
We also got the window AC unit into the living room window. We built a more permanent framing for it. When winter comes, I will cover and winterize in place.
Overall a very busy day.

A greenhouse!
Just bought one of these greenhouses from Costco today. It will make starting seeds much easier next year! Should also help us winter-over some plants.
