    So.......I started a project, My new Garage!

    Me too Indy, That is why I built it with a 6/12 pitch and the load factor on those trusses are built to support a lot of snow which should stay on the roof with asphalt shingles. We never had an issue with snow or melting in the 8 years that we have been here and we've had a lot of snow most...

    Nice healthy looking fish Skiroule, the 2nd one almost looks like a walleye from over here in Northern Wisconsin.

    So.......I started a project, My new Garage!

    Progress last week included getting the sheathing on the first part of the garage, building the gables, and putting on the silicone felt paper. At least now I have 20' x 30' that is waterproof so I have moved some things inside that were in my driveway. It was just me working alone this past and...

    After the front comes through we usually get a East/NE wind which results in no fish or very little action.

    Well, the work continues! We started this build 6 days ago, most of the time was either me or a neighbor helping me out and my wife helping as much as she can (Thanks Patty for helping me realize a dream!). The rest of the framing on the lower level was completed, the header for the garage door...

    So.......I started a project, My new Garage!

    So far, so good. As you know you have to be on someones list at least 2 years in advance to get a major project like this done. I'm in pretty good shape for a 66 year old and I like to see what I can accomplish. This is like building a small home, it's actually a little larger that our home...

Saturday was framing and Sunday also, Put up...
