WOOHOO! Good weather = time to build

Your photos take me back to the days when I did house framing during the summers when I was still in high school.

So why aren't you down here helping me?!!

That was like almost (ahem) 20 years ago (cough, ahem).

It looks good, they really start to take shape once the roof starts to go on. Looks like a really solid structure you got there.

I was on my way out the door to come down to help you, too, Gary, when I heard about that big snowstorm in the eastern U.S. - with no snow tires on my car, I decided to not chance it.
It's been over 20 years since I built my house (and I wasn't anywhere near high school at that time), so I probably wouldn't have been much help anyway. I am surprised that you opted for a built-up roof, though: that building is ideally suited to a truss-type roof, which would have allowed you to put the centre wall anywhere or even not use it at all. I do realise that it'd be difficult to move the trusses using a pick-up truck, though.

Your dimensioned drawing (giving new meaning to "feet" and inches) is somewhat confusing, though, as I was sure that your plan looked like this:


Did you have to get planning permission to move the door to the opposite wall?
