The house as it stood on Thursday morning. The ridge-beam is mounted and ready for rafters.
|
Here are the rafters. |
We started out by attaching the rafters that were above the sleeping loft.
We then began the tedious task of mounting the ones in the center of the house.
|
Gable-end rafters |
I stood on the silver ladder and held the rafter in place while Ben attached the rafter end to the house frame. He then attached the metal plate to the ridge-beam and then we nailed 2 hurricane ties per rafter to the frame. Needless to say we shifted ladders around ALOT. |

More Corolla hauling. |
|
We did haul this thing back over the house before we left on Sunday. |
|
We got most of the sheathing on. The rest will be placed this upcoming weekend. |
|
This was my prized shot for the weekend. |
