Bob, the homeowner, took this photo when he was in town for a site visit. Thanks Bob!
About 4.5' away from topping out.
Concrete chimney cap formed and poured.
The chimney cap forms are stripped, the remaining stone laid and the tent and scaffold/staging on the roof is down.The scaffold will remain up for a few days so that the stonework can be washed and so the carpenters can use the scaffold. I will now set up the scaffold/ staging for the upstairs fireplace in the study and get that completed as soon as possible so that the large study window can be installed. I will be using that large window opening for material access.
