Hi, Lawrence: Looking good. What are the dimensions? Sure you have enough pitch on that roof for your area? *G*
24x48 feet - 11.5 feet downstairs, 8 feet upstairs. The trusses are designed for a 50 lb/sqft snow load, which is 10 lbs/sqft more than one is supposed to need here, but I'm conservative about loads and it really didn't add much to the cost. If the snow doesn't slide off (5/12 pitch), should be no problem.
I look forward to getting it to the point of using lathes inside...
