August 1, 2 and 4, 2013 Building the roof

On August 1st, we started blocking the TGIs at the top wall logs, the perlins and the ridgepole, when we cut the TGIs to length and installed the 2 X 12 header boards the roof system became very solid.


On August 2nd, we installed the 2 X 12 header board on both sides, and then installed the facia boards on the sides. We started sheeting the roof about 7:30 PM. We had to quit with all but two 2 foot strips  left, one on each side of the peak; it was too dark to use the skill saw anymore.


On August 4th, we finished sheeting the roof and installing the facia boards on the front and back. It is now ready to be shingled.
