The Roof Continues!

Today I trimmed and fitted the rafters for the roof. I have to stain them before I do the final glueing, so they match the studs. But everything is fitting perfectly, so I am pleased. I had to cut a partial 45 degree angle on each rafter to line up with the 45 degree angle I carved a couple of weeks ago on the fascia. This will give me a seamless angle to fit the roof sheathing on later. I am hoping to use more of the boards I salvaged from the cedar flower lattices for the roofing.
