More stucco... and started the insulation and put reinforcement around the front door. Billy put styrofoam panels between the steel studs and foamed around them with the Wind-Lock foam. He then put the V-Buck back into place and attached it to the steel studs. He attached lath to the steel studs and shot concrete nails with washers into the shotcrete with a bullet nail gun. We worked on the front door all weekend and did a lot of stucco cleanup. We had several visitors over the weekend and Friday hosted Forecast Lighting from Chicago. Lighting will be spectacular and Mr. Hart was very helpful in creating the lighting mood for the dome.
