Re: Truss Setting
Nice looking system. Do you like it better then hand cutting a roof?

Re: Truss Setting
i always enjoyed hand framing, but with pre-built trusses, it has really made it simple to construct roofs.
This also goes the other way, with any local with a hammer and a trailer thinking they can frame up houses.... |
