since my last blog
i spent some time up in colorado again
working with my bud daniel on his sauna room
the weather here has been on and off like for many this winter
so not as fast as i would have liked it
but this monday i made the last of 19 trusses
and took the ‘drawing board/truss jig’ down
then as it was cold and windy i took a nap instead
at dawn today i went out bundled
and raised more trusses
i had to stack both ends as there just wasn’t enough room for that
this shows how one end is under the first stack
so the other end will rise up and over the other end 
then ladders and getting them all out of the way
up and down endlessly to secure them
then back to the next (don’t forget to put a guy rope on the end
as it sure helps steering them around up there)
finally got the last up and moved it as close to the ‘crane’ as i could
but as they are almost top heavy (like to tilt)
i came up with a clamped 2
SHOP ALONG #11: no joke, you can truss me on this
