Just a quick thanks to Evan for the site photo's, all the team work makes it possible.  Oh and you certainly won't find me up there with my camera!

The one and only P&B custom made roof rack (you can't buy these at Midas!).

Trusses are glued and pegged.  Pegs were sanded flush in order to conceal them. 

A french chalk wood wash finish was applied to the spruce.
