Finally!!!!! Ready for Decking!!!!


If anyone ever tells you that framing a roof is a piece of cake......tell them they are crazy. Crazy that is if you do not do it on a regular basis. I have never spent so much time trying to figure out an angle that I did this weekend trying to get the valley rafters cut. Well, after some sweat and frustration I got them done. The fly rafters and the gutter boards are up and ready to be wrapped with aluminum. We decided to have the gutter boards and fly rafter with aluminum since we can not buy the same trim that was used on our house 11 years ago. Thanks to a good friend Jason Smith and his business Orberson Guttering, Jason has said he would help me with the aluminum work. Well, here are a few pictures of where we are now.

Trusses are Set!




Well this past weekend I got the trusses set and the rest of the OSB on the walls. I can see the end of the tunnel now. I have several more things to do before I can get the roofers on site. I seem to be working myself in circles and the odds and ends are killing me. At any rate I am getting it done little by little. Here are a few pictures with of the progress of the past few days.
