Ahoy! Roof Experts

[ChiefChris]

I hate to admit it but I am stumped trying to get the client a good look. It looks great with a 4 pitch cathedrial and all will match. But, it turns out that the framers want to deal with trusses and not long rafters.

I guess you'll just have to get some real framers...

My framer handframed sheated and paperd this entire roof in 2 days with only 2 guys...when it was 11-20° outside. In fact 2 guys framed the whole project in only 1½ weeks..with an extra man to help stand the gable walls one day.

I think framers these days are just getting lazy....with all their pettibones, lifts, and what not...I still carry steel up a ladder on my shoulder to set it in a garage...

Paul - tell your framers you'll being them pizza one day if they do the hand-framing....
