Much head scratching today...


Shoulder rafters
Originally uploaded by Lenny & Meriel.
Fitting the 400 centred rafters on the shoulder has apparently been a nightmare. I think the problem has been in calculating the angle and exact position of cut. They claimed it was hard becuase we've got a steel joist - they prefer working with wooden structures (of course - they are chippies!).
Oh dear - they've got quite a lot more of this what with the other half of the shoulder and the new gable.
This photo shows the clerestry window just below the chippy's feet.
