According to “economy” from walden, what happened before the framing of thoreau’s house was completed?

Thoreau borrowed an axe and spent some days gathering things needed in framing his house. He cut and hew timber, studs, and rafters without thinking about  many things but the essence of nature. He made more familiarity of the trees and enjoyed the company of nature while preparing the woods needed to build his house.
