Today my neighbors Dave and Nathan helped build the roof frame. The frame consisted of 2×4 rafters cut for a 4:12 pitch with a 12 in overhang. I actually made the rafters several weeks ago in the garage. Dave measured and cut the bird-mouths and get the rafters installed – good thing – this is beyond anything I have ever done myself. Afterwards, we made some adjustments to the west side caster base and then installed ridge line boards and cross braces. An amazing amount of progress for one day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the Rafters and cross boards were installed, we put to 2×4’s up to create the ridge line. Then, Nathan and I decided to give the roll-off roof a dry run to see if it worked properly….<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The roof retracted perfectly with no binding! I was sweating that one…. The action was smooth, but the structure is pretty heavy. Good thing I plan on motorizing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
