The second floor has 5' knee walls and the roof is 12:12 so headrooom isn't much of an issue. That bumpout and dormer were designed so there is a opening in the second floor to the room below. This allows more light into the rooms and heat to circulate beter, plus it adds interest to the house. The opening in the floor is covered with bar grate so you can walk there but light and heat still gets by.

I still swing a 20 oz. Estwing. Well actually most of the time it rests in the loop while I use the nail gun. I guess I'm too cheap to lay down that kind of cash, but then again at the end of the day that tool belt feels like a boat anchor and I'm looking for ways to lighten it up. Maybe some day...
