| Our construction manager Myriah oversaw the delivery of the roof trusses to the work site. | The middle trusses are surprisingly light. |
| We lifted each truss to the roof, where Myriah slid it into place and laid it down. | We had plenty of opportunity to experiment with different ways to carry the trusses. |
| The trusses were laid down overlapping... | ...so they could be stood up one after another. |
| Next we lifted the front king truss, which was much heavier. | The king truss had to be carefully braced in position. |
| Myriah lifted each truss into position, as gaged by a marked board, and two of us on ladders "toenailed" the ends into place. | Finally we lifted the back king truss into place. |
| Myriah and Ron nailed it down. | That's a lot of wood! |
| Now it really looks like a house! |
