The Long Rafters

These are the long rafters. We have ten of them and they weigh about 150kg each. One has been cut perfectly to the drawing, unfortunately the drawing is incorrect. We need another drawing, for which we fortunately have email, and another rafter.

We have hired a crane to lift these brutes into position on Friday. We will miss the fun as we have to go to Amberley to collect the Ranger.

These are the short rafters. They turned out to be a bit too short, so we had to pack them with other wood.
