John's Random Semi-Conscious Thoughts

Right now this will be a blog of the trials and tribulations of getting a house built. Also, there may be the occasional ramblings from the goings-on within my head.

More Trusses And A Surprise.

More trusses have been installed. Problems with some of them though. The people who make the trusses goofed up on two different things. First, the stairs to the bonus room above the garage can't get thru the trusses. Morons forgot to account for the stair hole. I believe the framers are going to do some "field modifications" to get that to work. The other thing they did wrong was the gable ends. I asked for three foot overhangs and they sent one and a half foot overhangs. Replacement trusses are on order.

Surprise! After all that work hand digging all them wood fence posts, what should show up this evening? A Bobcat with a posthole attachement. Sheesh!!!



Here is a shot of the progress so far. Sorry for the lower quality picture, but it was getting pretty dark by the time I took the pictures.
