. Worked with some real twisted boards today.... Hip framing is slow, frustrating, but enjoyable...... when it turns out well. Cut the rafter tails and stepped back to sight em.....hopefully they're straight. The end of another fine day.

Looks good. What thickness is it? How are you cutting it?

Good morning, another hot miserable February day...... Sam got the cedar logs hauled home yesterday.

. Sam's all time first and second stumps.

. A real nice un.....

The boys and me killed cedar trees today.

Got the load of logs from your place bucked up and ready for the mill yesterday. Probably won't get time to saw em up till next week sometime. Heading to a neighbor's place to kill more cedar today. .

Good morning. 26/63 & clear, I guess. Sawed up a few old dead pine logs yesterday. Also a big oak of some kind.... made a 3x6x17' for the hip rafter on a project. Saved the rest of the log to make two more of em when the man is ready to do the rest of the porch.

Still have 5 dozen of to enjoy. 🙂

@WKEND LUMBERJAK Thanks for the eggs!

Going to be underground.....sorta. It's all going to be in conduit so I think it'll be fine. Planning to rent a ditch witch and do a bunch at one time, need to get the water line to the pig barn buried as well as water for the garden. Not sure what's inside the main, we'll add a junction box...

200 amp at the house, probably the same at the shed, then 100 in the shop which is probably going to be coming from the 200 amp panel in the shed. Each run is about 65' from the meter.
