Up and Out on the Roof


Happy Labor Day Weekend! Over the past two weeks, the work on the house has progressed nicely and has really helped add some style to the "box". The plywood sheeting was laid on the roof making it feel much more like a house; more interestingly, the eaves and overhang were added which give the house a distinct feel of a modern farmhouse dwelling. They are constructed of western red cedar which will also be the wood of choice for the board and batten siding that will be on the upper half of the house. In addition to the 4ft overhang with the distinct angle change, there will be a 4x6 beam running the length of the house and 4x4 supports from the eave to the side of the house every 4 ft.
