Trailering 16 foot 4x4 posts
Wednesday, September 21, 2011, 06:00 PM
Cut the ends of the roof section that was three inches too long. Nailed the header back on and then started working on the roof supports. Cut 14 of them which will be nailed to the top of the joists to give the roof a 3/24 pitch. went on an adventure to home Depot with Libbie. We bought 16 foot 4x4's which we took home on our 6 foot trailer. Fun!!!! I propped them up in the back on a pallet which stopped them from dragging on the ground as the trailer bounced but all the weight was still not on the ball. the trailer sways badly when driven like this so we went down 64 at 35 MPH with our flashers on. The trip home was uneventful, thank goodness. Tomorrow I'll put the 4x4's up. Dinner was Vegetable Lasagna, frozen from Trader Joes. We enjoyed dinner on the back porch with the fig tree lights on and a single glass of Shiraz each. Nice.
