Yes, 2x4's Bernd at 400mm centers, 16" to you.... :D
There are a few more strengthening bits to go in yet as it's to be a slate roof. Oh and to hold all my junk in the loft.
There will be a loft hatch, maybe two to make life easier as I have plenty to go up there !!
First time I've built an apex roof, and only one pent before that many years ago. Seems to have gone well enough. Certainly solid.
I live right in the hills Bernd, mountains that is in Snowdonia. I love it here but shopping is a chore as there are not any decent shops for miles upon miles... :med:
Darren:
Thought it might be time for an update,
Going is slow, I've never slated a roof before and there is quite a bit involved esp working out where to start, overhangs etc. The trick is not to cut any to size to keep the whole roof even looking.....still, it's coming along..bit at a time... :)
Divided he ad:
Just said this but... I think you're going quickly.... I'd be draggin' my heels!
Wouldn't it be nice if you could start from the top and work your way down? :smart:
Keep it up, you never know when a big lathe or a Briggy might just come your way? :thumbup:
Ralph.
Darren:
I think I'm draggin my heals Ralph...!! But it has rained quite a bit here....
I suppose when you came last Sat there was nothing on so I guess it looks good :)
A Coldchester Master was offered to me for little money when I bought the mill. It came with an inverter too.
It was the sheer size of the thing that put me off, I mean they are huge...not worried about housing it, just moving the lump is beyond my capabilities.
Too big..... :doh:
But then again.... :lol:
Darren:
I just realised what you meant Ralph.... :lol: :lol: :lol: Draggin heals
I'll let you explain it to the guys............. :ddb: :ddb: :ddb:
