I picked up the lumber purchased for the trusses this week. I'm still waiting on the last delivery of truss plates, should be here this afternoon. I'm going to start layout for trusses this week, I plan on building a jig after I get all the measurement for the first truss. I figure that by using a jig I can keep the the trusses uniform and avoid any problems with the layout. I'll post some pics as thing progress.
