August started wet when one of the boys went to the toilet and while opening the faucet broke it. They went to look for the main valve, while I put in local valves with every faucet, which now payed of, as we could close them and keep using water in the rest of the house.
Next was putting a roof on the porch and next replace the roof of the bathroom part of the house and the veranda. Here was a new challenge, as I had gotten a Velux window for some extra air and light in my future office. This was a fun project, but it was very warm during the building, with the last part Mattias got the IR thermometer and measured temperatures over 70* C on the black roof.
The end result was amazing! Some time in the future a roof stairs and a chimney sweep platform need to be installed, but for now it already looked very finished!
I finished the wood around the veranda. Nice to see how the wood I put in a month before already yellowed a lot.
With the electricity done, I decided to upgrade my internet router as well. It should be able to be connected to the optical cable directly, but after trying that I found out the would need some adjustment on the side of Telia and the first support agent I called had no clue what I was talking about and did not want to put me through to someone who would understand. So for now, I run it over copper.
The meter closet looks very organized now with the router, the home assistant blue, a Pine64 and a Raspberry Pi.
