Curt, they may have been fiddly but it looks like you've got them all installed straight.
Nicely done.

Afternoon All,

Thank you Terry, Mark, Greg, Rick, and Philip for following along and your kind comments.

Terry I assume that was your rating?

Today I spent 3 hours on finishing the corner rafters and rafters tails. Talk about fiddly. :o

Curt,

Fantastic job on the framing. Love the old weathered look and the staining.

All thumbs up here Butty.
