Today in the pleasant sunshine, we tackled the job of hoisting up the next two rafters, which are the rafters going into the corners JK and KL. After fiddling with the tower and the winch, we managed to lift them up separately into position and glue and nail everything together!

It is slowly coming together, the roof skeleton framework, we have two more diagonal rafters to do for this section of the roof and then we will have only the O Ridge complex over the Great Room to do and that’s it! Well, at least, these LVL special rafters will be done, after that, it will be building and installing dozens and dozens of “regular” rafters to fill in between all these skeleton hips and valley rafters! Phew!!
