My friend T, whose clutch I replaced while he handed me tools, is helping me out of an abundance of guilty conscience (and an overpowering sense of reciprocity). I intend to take full advantage of it. Pics later.

All five trusses are made, glued and nailed. Three are painted, two of those are on the roof already. Trusses four and five will be painted this afternoon and three four and five will be hauled onto the roof today or tomorrow. It's supposed to rain tomorrow, more rain than we've had all summer, so, more than a quarter inch, which tells me bupkis. But that I'm up on the roof part of the project now really means it's gonna be buckets, not bupkis. Ok, break's over. Back to work.

What did you make today?
I think you want tight fitting joints when using a wood working glue like TBIII. Framing lumber is slightly bowed and twisted and you will have little gaps to fill. TB will not work well there. You should use construction adhesive in caulking tubes. It is designed for this. I'm not sure which brand/type is best.

If there's no load ("only the light plastic roof material to support") why not just nail the thing together and throw it up there?
I've thrown up a pole barn or ten, never even seen a glued truss.

I used screws and Titebond on my barn. The plywood on the joints gave me a flat surface and screwing pulled everything flush. I'm always reluctant to suggest my heathen ways to others though. How are the codes in your area? Out here we can Gravdigr the hell out of stuff but in town they start eye-balling. good luck gotta run for a week

Two musical friends of ours are getting married tomorrow. They don't want wedding presents but on Monday night I had this idea ...
