I know a couple of you are into the whole house remodel and do it yourself thing. Ms Cid and I are going another way. I'll chronicle the details of this excursion over in my Blog for any of you that want to play along at home.

fixed........ :D carpenters get hit with more questions then DR's & Lawyers.... :D

 

not to mention roof truss designers. :D

 

homeowner - "can I get that 4/12 scissor truss to span the whole 50 ft. without internal bearing ? also..... we'd like a 10ft. cathedral ceiling in the living room & then a 2 ft. coffer in the kitchen area."

 

homeowner - ( after the trusses are built) - " will it cost alot more if we change the roofing from shake to tile ? "

 

homeowner - ( preparing for inspection) - " i need you to come out & look @ a couple trusses. the electrician & plumbers couldn't get the ducts / wiring in with out cutting a few trusses....... can you come out & take a look ... and give me some engineering specs to pass inspection. :D:D

 

roof truss designer - just stick frame it.

 

:D:D
