I realized the thickness of t he interior wall would affect the length of the rafter beam.

The top portion of the end interior wall needed to be removed.




I started removing the offending portion.

[ACL1504]

Bits and pieces, pieces and bits were removed.



Now the end rafter fits  flush against the wall.

Nice, smooth and clean after top of wall removal.




I also made sure the rafter wall cutout were clean of glue.

I then glued the rafters to the rafter beam and made sure they were all at 90 degrees to the beam.

[ACL1504]

Rafter section was test fit to ensure it fit properly.



Nice and tight fit.

Hello Tom, your REA build is coming along very nicely. I'll be interested to see what you will do with all of that roof space. I also really enjoyed the wide angle shots of your layout. It's nice to see the big picture sometimes.
