85F. Mostly cloudy.
After many smashed fingers, lots of sweating, a necessary amount of swearing, and an entire box of cap nails, the roof underlayment is installed with Rachel’s help. We had fun, but also… our fingers hurt real bad afterward.

Sub-fascia boards up.
75F. Clear.

A very productive day thanks to the help of both @milsyobtaf and @catsilo – today was a real barn raising. They lofted the rafters and installed them while I made all the bird’s mouth and plum end cuts. We managed to get all of the remaining rafters installed, which was super great!

Not a super productive day, but I did learn something valuable. First time measuring/cutting bird’s mouths in rafters. Managed to get a few up by myself. Bones made sure I did a good job.
80F. Overcast and Sunny.
The neighborhood board has finally given full permission for us to continue construction, with unmodified plans. After nearly a 2 month delay (57 days, to be exact) construction has begun once again with @milsyobtaf ’s assistance.
All four walls are now mostly sheathed, next up is to raft the ceiling joists and finish sheathing both the roof and the pitched side-wall segments.
