This afternoon, we headed out to the shed for the first time since the day before Thanksgiving! Everything looked good. The weather wasn't frigid, so we figured anything we could get done would be good.
Jim brought up the ridge board and we marked the location of all the rafters on both sides...
Putting the ridge board up so that he can reach it from on top...
Dragging it up...
Starting to set it in place...
Once it was set on the back side, Jim loosened the brace on the front rafter and then made sure everything was in the right spot before fastening...
Now that the ridge board is up, we can put up rafters...
Fastening in place...
Another rafter in place...
Using his pipe clamp to make sure the rafters and ridge board are straight...
Continuing to place rafters...
Darkness was starting to set in, but we made huge progress and got the ridge board and 9 rafters placed!
The side view...
Jim wanted to bring the generator in, so he loaded it up in the bucket on his way back down...
