You should get the people that helped with the build sign the trusses and write a small message. That way they will always be there.

I love the fact you are building it yourself. I was raised on a farm and we did everything ourselves. My dad passed his knowledge on to us and it has save me thousands of dollars over my lifetime not to mention the satisfaction I get from being able to do it myself. I'm sure once you and Megan have little ones you will enjoy passing your knowledge on to them. Bravo to you Joel for being someone willing to work and learn. Loving the barn build.

So true Joel. It seems damn near impossible to find people who treat your work as their own. I'm a licensed plumber/hobbyist woodworker and I essentially do everything myself for this very reason. You need to be watching over the workers shoulders at all times just to get it done (near) properly. It seems the really good ones are extremely expensive and typically booked up for months.

on the bottom gusset (bottom of rafter) you might want to put glue going up and down (like you are), but you need to put some going accross, both for downward pressue on the open joint, and lateral (streaching) on the open joint. While the glue with not solve all the problem, it will give you a little bit more strenth....good luck !!!

I got a feeling the plywood you have holding your truss together at the bottom with the overhang over the 2x4 will be a great place for native birds to have a nest.. it will certainly make a mess with the nest and poop..

Joel; logic is logic and i saw no reason to question why you built he barn yourselves. That would be, to me, an obvious answer. You are right however in saying that quality of work by many 'professionals' has gone by the wayside. What is the definition of a "Professional"? >>>>> someone paid to perform a service or task. That says nothing about their abilities!!

@redeyedmongoose2963 Well, they do go to school...granted generally only the 8th grade. But when you look at what their community values it is learning skills over a lot of the useless crap that non amish children are required to learn under the guise that it makes them more well rounded ... so many kids now days that are not going to be doctors or lawyers would be much better off taking shop classes where they learn a trade.

I have a question for your dad when he comes around, When you set your poles into the ground, you have then turned sideways, (the 4" thickness) to the wind load on the wall. Wouldn't they have been 50% stronger if they were turned 90 degrees with the 6" thickness against the wind load on the wall?

Recording a video while driving is just another form of distracted driving (like texting) which can lead to accidents and death of yourself or others. Is a KZbin video worth that? It is also a bad example to adults and children that it is okay to be distracted while driving. “It can’t happen to me”, no one should say that because it could happen to them. And before you give me the excuse, my phone has a mount, how comforting would you find that statement if you had to get that excuse as a grieving family or give that excuse to a grieving family. Please don’t record a video and drive.
