Worked a lot on the framing this weekend, set the front wall and started the area for the breezeway.

I have settled on building my own trusses, the lumber will be about $1800.00 and the labor free. I plan on using a jig for the layout to keep all the trusses uniform. I want to run them 24 in on center. As the only weight that will supported is the roof panels I think 2x4's will be more than sufficient to use for truss framing.

I have a lot yet to work out on measurements and angles for cuts. More head scratching.
