front elevation of plans

Thursday, July 21, 2011

Today rafters were on the to do list.  WOW these are complicated.  On the easy ones there is an angled cut on one side and a compound angle on the other.  My first experience with compound angles was when Dad and I tried to figure out how to put in the crown molding in the new living room.  After an afternoon of 'Dang Nab it' (Dad's words, not mine)  we called in a professional.  30 years later they are still a bit, shall we say "tricky".  The more complicated members also included not one but two seat cuts that fell where each rafter rests on each one of the two beams.  Pat and Eric were the professionals behind this one.    

 What are we even looking at?
Tomorrow it's rinse and repeat.  As if I know anything about hair care.
