==Thing to carry up to the hut==
The contents of this page have been moved to [[Hut Maintenance#Brew_Hut_Maintenance _Log]].
 
*Guitar, with spare strings
*some VOC Journals (see [[Brew Hut]] page for which ones)
*a better fire extinguisher
 
==Paint / weatherproof and final coat (medium priority)==
 
*Paint both floors, or at least the cracks
*There is an unused 8 inch roller up there.
*There's about 2 liters of downstairs (industrial) floor paint (concrete colour).  This should be enough to do the cracks in the floor liberally (2x?), plus another coat in the high traffic areas.  This will work better after the floor has dried a bit more and is swept very clean.  We have two, 4 inch rollers up there, which work well for the cracks, and for the coat in the high traffic areas.
*There's about 3 1/2 liters of pale sand or pale concrete industrial paint which can be used for the outdoors window ledges and window frames, a couple more coats if this looks necessary.  Then what is left over could be rolled onto the floor upstairs.  This will make the floor colour lighter overall, but this is not a bad thing.
*There's the sickly yellowish trim paint (about a liter), which can be applied to the window trim boards on the outside, and inside as well, if that's what we want.  This paint is really ugly, and should only be used as a base coat if painting for it with something else.  This can may have issues because the lid may not seal properly though I beat on it with a hammer for a while.
*There 1/3 of a 1L can of bright yellow, plus another unopenned 1L can of the same.  This paint is for interior and exterior trim boards.  They don't need to be painted again anytime soon.
*There's part of a liter of paint thinner/solvent up there, for whatever purpose.
*Note that the industrial paint must be applied in a strong wind with the windows open, and the hut vacated for at least 12 hours after, so should be done just before departing for the city.  Once applied, the windows do not need to be left open.
*Anybody intending to finish the painting should bring up a disposable brush.  And a rag for dusting.
*There's 2 small unopened tubes of dynaflex 230 caulking.  The only joints which have not yet been overzealously caulked are the joints between the sheet metal and J trim on the sides of the windows.
 
==Heater & stovepipe (medium priority)==
 
* Point where chimney goes through the roof needs to be insulated and sealed against drafts on the inside.
 
* The metal sheet under the stove needs to be secured to the floor.  A moulding is at the hut and awaiting installation.  The moulding should be nailed down with finishing nails (which are also on site)
 
==Miscellaneous (low priority)==
 
* Put rocks and/or wire mesh at the side of the Hut to keep wolverines from crawling under it.  Materials are available on site
 
* Woodshed
 
* Create [[Welcome to the Brew Hut|signs]] about the brew hut (and how to send us money) and get them laminated.  Also need some new maps for the walls (NTS and TRIM), which should also be laminated.  Non-laminated versions of the NTS map and Instructions for the Brew Hut are presently in place.
 
* Clean up any building debris, ie MicroBrew, and convert it into firewood.
 
* A lightning rod. (Wire is provided but the rod is too heavy.)
 
* An outside ladder to the attic at the Garibaldi end of the Hut.
 
==Cleanup (medium priority)==
 
*Perhaps carry sheet metal and surplus insulation down to add to the pile where the old Hut used to be.
