Roof - Part 1

The 2nd floor ceiling/ attic floor is finished. As you can see - Jordan is hard at work (hey - talking on the phone all day is hard work!)
We are building a hip roof, instead of a classic gable roof. The hip roof is more french. Here are a couple photos so you can see what the rafters look like.

This is the coolest thing! I've never known someone who decided to build their own house. Paying someone else to build it for your doesn't count.
Thanks for sharing and keeping us updated.
Very cool!!!
