CUTTING THE ROOF BACK

Bruce used Wade's chain saw to cut the existing roof back. He had to stop often to sharpen the few teeth that were left after cutting through nails. Later we cut off the exposed ends of the glue-laminated rafter beams.

The rolling tool box is working out well.

The existing wall is still in place. We will build the new structural support wall first and then remove the existing wall which is supporting the existing roof. On the picture on the left, you can see some of the structural insulated panel wall being assembled. This section will be the new kitchen door way out to the new deck.
