I think now that I’m older I think about what can happen to you if you fall. It started for me when a guy in town fell of his ladder cleaning his gutters and died.

Very cool Tman when I was roofing the first time dude I never even thought about Falling but when I went back a second time man I shitted bricks all day long plus I had got heavier then b4 so herring those 2×4 creek didn’t help..
Awesome stuff Tman! I miss the days of running top plates. Careful up there

I’m the same way, now at 30, I think about the things I did in my early 20s at Sports Authority in the rafters and on the H-frames. Like strattling a corner gap, 20+ feet up, unharnessed pulling a stack of 6 canoes to make room. Luckily there was a nice pallet of dumbells to cushion my fall if I fell.

I miss being a carpenter.. 🙂
Why did they design the roof in the back like that, so much wasted space looks like a slip n slide. Yup that roof is going to take forever to do
Theres alot of wasted space in this house i mean theres at least 20 feet of attic space (hight) he could of easy put a 3rd floor up there but ya when they designed this house and roof i think the owners wherr like make everything as big as possible and go bigger lolJustin Hernandez wrote:

It looks dumb I would have made that another room. The owner must be compensating for something..lol Is land expensive there?
Land is fucking expensive here and the owner is some old mob ties man with his wife his best friend owns the second hpuse witch we are building he bought the property like 40 years ago but ya.the house lookd nice in my opinion its just.big as fuck and thats what he wanted soJustin Hernandez wrote:

Did they knock down the house that was there or was it just land before??
I don’t know why, but It was popular for medical offices for awhile to put in these huge roofs. I didn’t get it as the developer/owner. It’s just wasted space/ materials, plus the added cost. People that own they or buy them later are going to be pissed when they see how much it will cost for a reroof on them. The added cost on this house being a hip sucked bad enough!!!
Most likely the roof has to be done using a boom lift and it will be slow going. Tool Rental company will love you though
my bosses own 3 zoom booms so we use that to load trusses and materialJustin Hernandez wrote:

Heights aren’t all that bad…. Even the fall isn’t too scary. What gets ya is the thought of the sudden stop at the bottom. [emoji16]
