The trusses go up

Work is progressing on the new addition to Kurt's shop. He excavated the site in August, cement was poured in September, he put up the three studwalls in October. Then came the cracked rib and now it is November.....Three friends helped put up the trusses last week

Here is the start of the day- getting the sills ready

Now all the trusses are on top of the walls and it is time to move them into position. Yes, that is Kurt standing on a ladder!!?? (at least he wasn't walking along the sills)


The last trusses are getting set into place (and notice our one maple tree turning yellow in the background)
